H.O. Top 100 Colleges and Universities for Hispanics

It is a well-established fact that the Hispanic/Latino population in the U.S., which currently represents nearly 20% of the total, continues to grow. As a result, Hispanic/Latino students will continue to have an important presence in higher education, and colleges and universities across the country will be the vehicles of social mobility and stalwarts of support for students from diverse backgrounds that they have always been, regardless of ever-shifting political developments.
