The HBCUs really do a stellar job.
This link https://www.aamc.org/data-reports/students-residents/interactive-data/2021-facts-applicants-and-matriculants-data will let you see which universities are having greater number of URMs applying to medical school. This is obviously a very limited subset of STEM, but seeing which universities are having more applicants might be an indication of a more supportive environment. If a smaller school is higher up on the list, that shows it as a heavy-hitter. Or if a school with a low minority population is sending a good number on to medical school, that’s another one that would catch my eye.
Some of the universities on that list that caught my eye as having a higher percentage of black students as a proportion of their total medical school applicants were:
- Howard
- Georgia State
- Xavier of Louisiana (they’re really well known as hitting above their weight)
