<p>NewHope is correct that there is a lot of geographic diversity. As far as race diversity, it is not as much as some others I have seen (this question came up a while back and so it was researched) but the statistics also seem to vary from one reporting site to another. If you believe this one:</p>
<p>[College</a> Navigator - National Center for Education Statistics](<a href=“http://nces.ed.gov/collegenavigator/]College”>College Navigator - National Center for Education Statistics)</p>
<p>After finding the school of interest, click on “Enrollment” and look at the bar charts. So for example:</p>
<p><a href=“College Navigator - Search Results”>College Navigator - Tulane University of Louisiana;
<p>then you will see Tulane is not quite as diverse as many peer institutions such as Vandy, Emory, Miami, BC, etc. When I say peer, I am talking about schools that have a lot of overlap as far as people applying (don’t want to get into another one of those arguments about which school is “better” and rankings). It is actually kind of fascinating. Tulane is very similar to BC and Vandy, the big difference with Duke and Emory are that Asian students replace about 15% of the white students compared to Tulane, and at Miami Hispanic students replace about 20% of the white students. At UT-Austin there are about 10% more Hispanics and 10% more Asians, and fewer blacks (all percentages, of course). Not sure what all that means, but something to chew on anyway.</p>
