Percentage of asisn/other races at University of Michigan?

<p>Can someone tell me what the percentage of student body is asian or black/hispanic etc.....I just got accepted and was wondering</p>

<p>tons of Asians, not a lot of URM</p>

<p>oh okay so there are a good amount of asians at university of Michigan??</p>

<p>Sounds great!!! that means i will fit in =)</p>

<p>Was afraid it was allll white and i would be one of the few asians that attended</p>

<p>oh no, definitely not… especially if u are engineering</p>

<p>Surprisingly, the most heavily Asian class I’m in is the one which isn’t Engineering. </p>

<p>Overall I’d guess the University is abut 15-20% Asian (I’m sure you can look up the actual number if you want), being higher than that in Ross and CoE, and slightly lower than that in LSA. Either way, being the only Asian around is the last thing you’d ever have to worry about.</p>

<p>That being said, the vast majority of those Asians (at least that I’ve met) are Chinese transfer students. The number of American born Asians seems to be much smaller. Not that you’ll have trouble finding some, but there are a lot fewer.</p>

<p>ahh okay. Yea i got accepted into the COE, so happy since its ranked like top 10 in engineering.</p>

<p>Im american born haha, but its nice to know there will be asians lol </p>

<p>Most of the international students from China speak english though right? I heard most of them attend International school in china where they speak english etc…</p>

<p>"Most of the international students from China speak english though right? "</p>

<p>Well, I’m sure there is some minimum TOFFEL score they need to be admitted, so there obviously is no one who has no grasp of English. Many you won’t have trouble communicating with in English, a few you might.</p>

<p>oh okay…sounds good to me hehehe </p>

<p>will most likely attend next fall =)</p>

<p>unless i miraculously get into Cooper Union ED or get into UMaryland and they give me a ton of money</p>

<p>Statistics from last December:</p>

<p>Demographics of student body Undergraduate/Graduate/ </p>

<p>African American 5.8% 4.2%
Asian American 12.1% 8.8%<br>
European American 65.0% 48.5%
Hispanic American 4.1% 3.6%
Native American <1% <1%
International student 5.7% 30.9%</p>

<p>ahhh thank you…dang look at the percentage of european americans</p>

<p>You shouldn’t have a problem finding Asian-Americans. They make up the largest percentage of Asians on campus. It really depends on where you’re looking.</p>
