Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs): 2020-21

The classification of Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs) was formally recognized in federal legislation for capacity-building support to improve the access and quality of education for Latino and other low-income students. HSIs are defined as accredited, degree-granting public or private nonprofit institutions of higher education with 25% or more total undergraduate Hispanic full-time equivalent (FTE) student enrollment. The list of institutions identified as HSIs in this analysis is meant to assist in considering and analyzing the institutions that meet the basic legislative definition of a Hispanic-Serving Institution. The list of HSIs presented in this report was created using data from the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS).
