Know what a HSI is?

HSI is the acronym for those colleges and universities that are deemed Hispanic- Serving Institutions. It means that 25% or more of their full-time undergraduate students are Latino.

In light of the growth of the Latino student population and the dismal rates of college completion, Excelencia in Education has released an analysis of where the next HSIs are expected to be, given that these institutions are fast approaching the 25% Latino student body rate.
