STUDENT & FACULTY DIVERSITY REPORT March 2019 IowaCollegeAid.gov EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Iowa College Student Aid Commission (Iowa College Aid) annual Student and Faculty Ethnic Diversity Report summarizes trends in the representation of minority population groups among students, faculty, and state financial aid recipients at Iowa colleges and universities. The report has been published each year since 1992 and is provided to the Governor and Iowa General Assembly as directed by Iowa Code §261.2 (Duties of commission). This report is based on responses to an annual survey given to Iowa college and university administrators. Iowa College Aid is grateful for the assistance of college and university staff who contributed the information compiled for this report. Findings of the 2019 report include the following: • Over the past year, the number of minority students enrolled at Iowa colleges and universities increased 6%, from 37,802 in fall 2017 to 40,105 in fall 2018. • Between fall 1992 and fall 2018, enrollment of racial and ethnic minority students in Iowa’s colleges and universities has more than tripled. • In fall 2018, racial and ethnic minorities represented 17.9% of enrollment in Iowa colleges and universities. Of the 17.9%, 11.1% were Iowa residents. • Among Iowa-resident minority students attending college in Iowa during the 2017–2018 academic year, 6.4% were awarded the Iowa Tuition Grant, 1.8% the Iowa Vocational-Technical Tuition Grant, and 1.0% the All Iowa Opportunity Scholarship. • In fall 2018, roughly 12% of all faculty in Iowa colleges and universities were from a minority population group. Methods for collecting the data in this report are described in the Report Background section on page 12. Institutions self-reported aggregate numbers on race and ethnicity of faculty and students; therefore data represented in this report may not match total enrollment data on other agency reports. For this report, minority students and faculty include those from the following population groups: Hispanic or Latino; American Indian or Alaska Native; Asian; Black or African-American; Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander; two or more races/ethnicities.
