    Just found out I'm half Polynesian, How do I get Scholarships?
    Throughout my life I though my dad was this Native American/Black guy. My mom mentioned that she was seeing a Hawaiian/Samoan guy the same time she got pregnant with me. I took a DNA test from Ancestry.com which reveals your ethnicity.. The results I got were East Asian, Pacific Islander, Eastern European, Scandinavian, Southern European. (My moms white)

    I confronted my mom about it and she showed me the picture of my REAL biological dad... I look just like him. I've looked around and I really can pass for 100% Polynesian. I've been looking for scholarships, along with my bio dad, and the requirements for APIASF is that you had to be of Asian or Pacific Islander decent according to the US Census in 1997. I know I do not meet that requirement. What can I do?

    Are you in high school now, or college?
