When providing information on their race and ethnicity, students were asked two questions. The first question asked the student: Are you Hispanic/Latino? The second question allowed students to select among five race categories, with multiple responses allowed. In the first table, students are counted in only one race/ethnic group category. If the student indicated yes to the first question, the student was categorized as Hispanic (only) regardless of any race code(s) they may have selected. If the student marked more than one race (and no to Hispanic/Latino in the first question), he/she was reported in the category of Multiracial. The second table counts a student in every race/ethnic group category he/she selected. The percentages in this table are based on the headcount of students.
