Filling status for "Married filling separately"

I have F1 visa and my wife has F2, both non-resident. My university had a program to help students do their taxes. So they helped me (using their software) to fill and print forms, one of which is 1080NR.

Now, I was just about to post the forms, but I noticed that in the Filling Status section for both me and my wife Other single nonresident alien is checked.

I'm not sure whether this is correct. Aren't we technically Other married nonresident alien? When filling the forms the person actually asked something from his superior and she said they have to fill separately. But does this mean that we have to choose Other single nonresident aliens?

Your help is highly appreciated,
