Every year, Hispanic Outlook on Education features Top 100 lists to chart the national progress of Hispanics in higher education and to recognize the institutions that are committed to serving Hispanics’ educational needs. The lists, which appear in the magazine’s October 2021 issue, are compiled from the U.S. Department of Education’s database of completed higher education surveys from all 50 states.
The federal government has recognized CSUSB as a Hispanic-Serving Institution, which is defined as a nonprofit college, university or system/district that has at least a 25 percent Hispanic full-time equivalent undergraduate enrollment, according to the Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities (HACU). As of fall 2020, CSUSB has a Hispanic undergraduate full-time student enrollment of 66 percent. CSUSB is one of 18 of the California State University’s 23 campuses that are HSIs.
