<p>*i heard that UCSB is one of the least diverse UCs because of how little the percentages of minorities are compared to the others? *</p>
<p>That’s not really true… See here:</p>

<p>Outside of the bottom 2 ranked UCs (UC Merced and UC Riverside), UCSB has the highest rate of under-represented minorities in the UC system at 30.0% (look at the second to last column). Compare this to Berkeley (15.5%) and Irvine (18.2%) for example.</p>
