MBA programs with the most minority students enrolled
Despite some enrollment increases, research indicates that many students of color remain underrepresented in MBA programs. However, this is the not the case at all graduate business schools. Based on data collected by U.S. News, here are 25 schools that enrolled at least 30 students and had the highest percentage of full-time students who self-identify as Asian, Black, Hispanic, Native American or Pacific Islander. International students are not included in these figures. Underrepresented minorities make up an average of 54% of the student bodies at these schools, the majority of which are historically Black colleges and universities or Hispanic-serving institutions.
