What are the demographics like at the University of Mississippi?

Hey everyone, I'm doing some research on the University of Mississippi, and I'm really curious about their student demographics. A diverse learning environment is really important to me. Can anyone shed some light on this?

Absolutely! The University of Mississippi, also known as Ole Miss, is home to a wide array of students from different backgrounds. According to the data available, the school had an undergraduate enrollment of around 18,500 students.

In terms of racial and ethnic diversity, about 76.5% of the student body identified as White, approximately 10.3% as Black or African American, 5.4% Hispanic or Latino, 3.7% Asian, and 0.8% other or unknown. The remaining students identify as either non-resident alien or two or more races.

Additionally, the University of Mississippi attracts students from not only all over the U.S -- all 50 states are represented -- but from over 90 foreign countries as well.

These statistics can shift slightly each year as new students enroll, but they should give you a general idea of the school's demographics. Keep in mind that diversity extends beyond these metrics and campus organizations, clubs, and initiatives can also contribute to a rich and inclusive environment.
