Yes it is. More than enough for many things including a college scholarship, if you can prove it.

How could they disprove it? Would they really put forth the money and effort to test?

I wouldn't know. But I am pretty sure you only have to prove 1/16 of a native american heritage to get assistance.

The burden is on the individual--you have to be enrolled with a tribe and have a census number. As far as I know, most tribes require at least 1/4 to be enrolled.

Oh yeah--*raises hand* 1/2 Native American
