Nah, chances are, if you've been here that long you're a permanent resident or more likely, a citizen, and yet a person of foreign ethnicity. And if you REALLY look at things like that, everyone is of a different ethnicity because that's just the nature of the country.
I was merely referring to people like myself. I moved here when I was seventeen. My family is still back at home. And I don't intend to go back before I finish my MBA, and perhaps a couple of years after that, and depending on all the million factors that can change in that duration. And though I'd have been here, say, 6-7 years by the time I matriculate (Class of 2014), that doesn't really make me any less "international"
And you are right in saying that the book talks about people like that. I'm just saying I met a lot of people who had moved here after their undergraduate education and done a second UG, or a masters degree because their UG degree was from a relatively unknown college or something like that.

Per my conversation with an ad com member, if one is a green card holder or a naturalized citizen -- he would be pooled in with the domestic applicants and not with the candidates from his home country. He may further be considered a minority candidate--for example a G.C holder originally from Australia maybe considered a minority (domestic) candidate.
