Diversity and Demographics in a University

<p>Hi all,</p>

<p>I'm wondering where I can find a listing on a school's website or elsewhere about the demographics and diversity in a university.</p>

<p>Specifically, I'm interested in:</p>

<p>In-state vs. Out of State
Minorities Diversity
International</p>

<p>Also, if possible, I'm curious if I could find out a school's national pull. Many say 'students from each of the 50 U.S states' but I want to verify that and I'm also curious if their is a statistic of specific numbers of students for specific states or regions.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Most schools have this information on the Admissions part of their webpage or posted by the Office of Institutional Research (they are almost always called this or something like that).</p>

<p>Another place to check is running your own report using IPEDS:
[The</a> Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System - Home Page](<a href=“http://www.nces.ed.gov/ipeds]The”>IPEDS)</p>

<p>Also, if you use [::</a> College Planning Made Easy | Inside Source for College Admissions Requirements](<a href=“http://www.collegeboard.com%5D::”>http://www.collegeboard.com) for your college search, it has all the stats all in the same place, every time. You might even be able to do a comparison of different schools. For schools that report it, they even show the make-up of the various minorities.</p>

<p>Search for the Common Data Set of each school - it contains this information, and most schools post it on the web.</p>

<p>For a thumbnail sketch of the information you seek look at **************.com. They quote such data from many colleges.</p>
