<p>are there more chinese people or filipino people at usc? just curious.</p>

<p>Definitely more Chinese. I know cuz my roommate is filipino, and he definitely has not many fellow people from his country. I have a few friends who are Chinese and I know that the Chinese Student Association is huge.</p>

<p>According to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Southern_California#Demographics%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Southern_California#Demographics&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>The following figures are accurate as of the 2004-2005 academic year.</p>

<p>USC has a total enrollment of 32,160 students, of which 15,686 are at the postgraduate level. 350 postdoctoral fellows are supported along with 900 medical residents. There are currently 4,390 faculty and about 14,000 support staff. There are roughly 180,000 living USC alumni. The university has attracted more international students over the years than any other American university. Currently, about 10 percent of USC's students represent over 115 countries. The USC Alumni Association has more than 200,000 current members.</p>

<p>The male:female ratio at USC is nearly 1:1, and about 45% of new students come from out of state. The ethnic breakdown of undergraduates is:</p>

<p>47% Caucasian
