  • Hispanic-Serving Institutions (Hsis): 2019-20
    Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs): 2019-20 The mission of Excelencia in Education is to accelerate Latino student success in higher education. A critical group of institutions enrolling and graduating Latino students are Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs). Summary of the 2019-20 HSI List In the 1980s, leaders recognized a small set of institutions enrolled a large percentage of Latino students but had low levels of resources to educate these students. The classification of Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs) formally recognized these institutions for capacity-building and other support. HSIs are defined as accredited, degree-granting public or private nonprofit institutions of higher education with 25% or more total undergraduate Hispanic full-time equivalent (FTE) student enrollment.1 In 2019-20, 569 institutions met the enrollment definition of HSIs. HSIs represent 18% of colleges/universities and enroll 67% of Latino undergraduates. The list of institutions identified as HSIs in this analysis is not intended to designate eligibility for any specific program; rather, the list is meant to assist in considering and analyzing the institutions that meet the basic legislative definition of a Hispanic-Serving Institution. The following list of HSIs was created using data from the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS).2 Location Sector State/Location # HSIs Sector # HSIs % HSIs California 175 Public, 2-year 235 41% Texas 100 Private not-for-profit, 4-year or above 169 30% Puerto Rico 64 Public, 4-year or above 150 26%

And so my quest for a major began. I took classes in Political Science, Philosophy, History, Psychology and yes, Sociology and found that I loved them all. I came to the conclusion that I did not have to choose just one, and could major in Social Science, which has a bit of all of them, SCORE! I didn’t have a career in mind at the time I chose my major, I just knew I wanted to help people. During your time at CMC visit a counselor on a regular basis to make sure you are on track and speak to your instructors, they have a wealth of knowledge. I knew that I wanted to continue with my education as soon as I completed my first semester at CMC. I was a single parent and had two children to support. I was aware that the further I went the better my chances were to give them a better life. I have to be honest, I really didn’t research universities. As I said I was a single mom and could not afford to move. I picked a campus that I could drive to, California State University San Bernardino (CSUSB).
