LSU racial demographics - how diverse is the student population?

Hi everyone, I'm currently looking at different college options and diversity is one of the factors that's important to me. Can anyone provide some info on the racial demographics at Louisiana State University (LSU)? Thanks in advance!

Hi! It's excellent that you're considering diversity as a deciding factor when choosing a college. Louisiana State University (LSU) has a relatively diverse campus. These are the ethnic diversity statistics based on the Fall 2021 enrollment:

- White: 60%

- Black or African-American: 18%

- Hispanic or Latino: 10%

- Asian: 5%

- Two or more races: 3%

- American Indian or Alaskan Native: 0.4%

- Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander: 0.1%

- Nonresident aliens (International students): 2%

- Unknown: 1%

Please note that these stats may change slightly from year to year, but they can give you a general idea of the diversity at LSU. While numbers can partially express a campus's cultural diversity, it's also essential to think about the inclusiveness of the campus and the overall environment. Visiting campus (if possible) or engaging with current students or alumni can provide insight into whether the college aligns with your priorities and values. Good luck with your college search!
