All rights reserved.  \nOverview  \nExcelencia in Education has been tracking the profile and growth of Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs), a critical group of institutions enrolling Latino students, since the founding of the organization (2004) . HSIs are defined in federal law as accredited and degree-granting public or private nonprofit institutions of higher education with 25 percent or more total undergraduate Hispanic full-time equivalent (FTE) student enrollment. These institutions were first recognized in federal law in 1992 (Higher Education Act) .  \nExcelencia in Education is an independent organization and releases the list of institutions meeting the basic definition every year. In addition, Excelencia developed the Emerging HSIs (eHSIs) category, institutions with 15-24.9 percent undergraduate full-time equivalent Hispanic enrollment, to track the growth of potential HSIs in 2009. Excelencia popularized the eHSIs category and HSIs with graduate programs (gHSIs), a subset of HSIs, by tracking and releasing annual analyses on these institutions as well. Information on these institutions is available at our website: [EdExcelencia.org/research-policy/hispanic-serving-institutions-hsis](EdExcelencia.org/research-policy/hispanic-serving-institutions-hsis).  \nThis factbook includes factsheets on these groups of institutions along with the lists of HSIs, eHSIs, and gHSIs for 2023-24, the latest academic year ","cbCaiikL3VLHG2UE","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiikL3VLHG2UE","pdf",2961235,12,"English","# Overview\n## Definitions and tracking of HSIs, eHSIs, and gHSIs\n## Data sources and factbook scope\n# Table of Contents\n## Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs) Factsheet: 2023-24\n## Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs) Infographic: 2023-24\n## Over 30 Years, HSIs, eHSIs, and gHSIs have grown significantly\n## HSIs enroll and graduate students of all backgrounds\n## Top 10 HSIs enrolling Latinos are public and concentrated geographically\n## Developing Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs) 101: Building Capacity\n## Federal HSI Funding by State","[{\"question\":\"What does the factbook cover regarding Hispanic-Serving Institutions?\",\"answer\":\"It compiles analyses of Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs), Emerging HSIs (eHSIs), and HSIs with graduate programs (gHSIs), including facts on their growth over time since HSIs were first defined in federal legislation.\"},{\"question\":\"How are HSIs defined under federal law in the factbook?\",\"answer\":\"HSIs are accredited, degree-granting public or private nonprofit higher education institutions where Hispanic full-time equivalent (FTE) undergraduate student enrollment is 25% or more.\"},{\"question\":\"What data and years are used to produce the fact sheets?\",\"answer\":\"The factbook uses Excelencia in Education’s analysis of U.S. Department of Education NCES IPEDS data, covering 1994 through 2023 Fall Enrollment, and includes the latest academic year of publicly available data for fact sheets (2023-24).\"}]","30 Years of Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs): Improving Access to Quality for 30% | PDF",1792049984]
