Is there a separate form that i need to fill out to be considered a urm?
Ordinarily, the college’s question about student ethnicity is built into the college’s application form, and asks questions about categories that are specified by federal law, and in some cases also by state law or state university system regulations. I’m not aware of any colleges that have a separate form about ethnic identification, but I would glad to hear from other participants about any examples of that they have heard of. As sybbie points out above, the community identification that helps suggest a way to answer college ethnicity questions doesn’t end with the college application process. Many colleges have student organizations for students of various ethnicities, and may have college-organized advising or other programs for students of particular ethnicities. Does your self-identification extend to your planned college life?
