<p>I heard UVA is totally a school of white kids.
Are there any Asians or KOreans there?</p>
<p>UVa is 11% Asian. I could be wrong, but I think Koreans are the largest group of Asians at UVa.</p>
<p>Hmm, I might think Chinese is the largest group? I'm not sure, but regardless, there are a lot of Koreans, Japanese, Vietnamese, and Chinese. The other Asian groups are represented as well.</p>
<p>Melli is a great source for anything Asian!</p>
<p>The Asian population in general definitely has a significant presence, and within that distinction, Koreans certainly have their fair share. (from an outsider's perspective)</p>

<p>It's great how many different groups of Asian students are now represented at UVa with their own student organizations. Cool to know, db123.</p>
<p>I'm half chinese & half white. Of course, I look mad asian. I don't read, write, or even speak any asian language. Can I still join an asian frat/club?</p>
<p>As someone who visits Virginia colleges often, I have seen 10 times more asian folks at UVA than any other college/university I have been to. I know it literally isn't 10 times more, but there are a lot. I wouldn't worry about not having some people you can relate to, from your own country. </p>
<p>One of the things that draws me to UVa is the diversity in the student body. I want to meet people from all over the world! The experience must be amazing - so definitely take note of that.</p>
<p>ercmillia -- I would say that's probably true only when comparing UVA to other VA/regional schools. There are many schools with a significantly larger Asian pop (California of course).</p>
<p>Jask925, you don't have to be Asian to join an Asian club. When I graduated, the Treasurer of the Asian Student Union was a Jewish girl from NYC.</p>
<p>yes Jask, I know of several who have (talking about frat/sorority). As far as Clubs, even more so. In these clubs and organizations you will find many people who don't share a background with the focus of the club but are there to celebrate and appreciate it nonetheless (like me, for example).</p>
<p>needless to say, there seems to be a ton of Asians here--I'd wager more from Asia than from the US.</p>
