Number of Hispanic-serving Institutions Climbs to 571

The number of Hispanic-serving institutions grew to 571 in the 2021-22 academic year, according to new data from Excelencia in Education, an advocacy group for Latino students. This represents a rebound from 2020-21, when the number of HSIs shrank for the first time in 20 years due to enrollment declines and other pandemic-induced stressors, the organization said.
