What's the diversity like at Texas A&M?

I'm considering applying to Texas A&M and I want to know more about the diversity on campus. Can someone provide me with some statistics or info on the makeup of the student body? I'm particularly interested in racial and ethnic diversity and how diverse the university is compared to other schools in Texas.

Texas A&M University has a diverse student population, though the level of diversity may not be as high as at some other universities in Texas. According to the latest data, Texas A&M's student population is as follows:

- White: 50%

- Hispanic/Latino: 23%

- Asian: 11%

- Black or African American: 3.41%

- Two or more races: 2.76%

- International: 8%

- Native American: 0.23%

- Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander: 0.03%

- Race/ethnicity unknown: 1.29%

Texas A&M has a relatively diverse student body. For context, other large public universities in Texas like the University of Texas at Austin and the University of Houston boast slightly higher levels of diversity. Naturally, the diversity at each university will also depend on individual campus demographics and concentrations of certain programs.

While statistics can provide an idea of the campus diversity, it's important to complement these numbers with personal experiences and anecdotal evidence. Texas A&M is known for its friendly and welcoming atmosphere, so you may want to reach out to current students and alumni or visit the campus to get a better sense of the day-to-day environment.

It's worth noting that many universities (including Texas A&M) offer various clubs, organizations, and resources aimed at fostering diversity and inclusion. These resources can help you connect with like-minded individuals and enable you to celebrate and share your own cultural background with the campus community.
