Mississippi State University demographics?

I was checking out Mississippi State University as one of my potential choices, and I wanted to learn more about the demographics there. Can anyone give me a rundown on what the student population looks like, in terms of diversity and whatnot?

Mississippi State University (MSU) is located in Starkville, Mississippi, and has a relatively diverse student body. According to the latest available data, the demographics of MSU's undergraduate student population are approximately as follows:

- White: Approximately 62%

- Black or African American: Approximately 25%

- Hispanic or Latino: Approximately 4%

- Asian: Approximately 2%

- Two or more races: Approximately 2%

- International: Approximately 2%

- Other/Unknown: Approximately 3%

This data gives you an idea of the racial and ethnic composition of the university. In addition to racial and ethnic diversity, the university also has a range of students from different socioeconomic backgrounds, states, and countries, and thus offers a broadly diverse environment for students to learn and grow.

Keep in mind that these numbers can change as new students are admitted and old ones graduate, so it's always a good idea to double-check with the university's most recent enrollment reports, by visiting their Office of Institutional Research and Effectiveness (IRE) website. This site provides updated enrollment data and additional details on factors like gender distribution, age demographics, and more.

Good luck with your college search!
