[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thoughts on this? My kid is doing a summer program that is meant for minorities (when she is not a minority). She and a few other kids were merged into this program through another pathway (she applied for something else and the secondary program dropped it's hires into this slightly larger internship). Do you think this could go wrong or help her college applications? Essentially she is now a white girl doing an internship (at a major US company) for "Black women in XX industry" She would consider backing out but it starts on Monday and she just found out. Thoughts?[/quote] What's wrong with this? If she doesn't like the program, then back out. If not, just do it and list is as is on the application. If the college assumes she's Black and she gets brownie points for that, so be it. [/quote]
