About
Fostering equity and excellence at UC Santa Cruz
At UC Santa Cruz, we highly value diversity, yet we know the conversation goes beyond enrolling a diverse student body. Continued progress toward educational equity is key to supporting academic success for all students, regardless of race or ethnicity.
UCSC continues to pursue programming and funding opportunities that honor the diverse needs of our students and advance educational equity for student pathways and institutional transformation. We believe using our HSI funding and programming to build a thriving, inclusive community will enrich both the social and academic experience for everyone at UC Santa Cruz.
Mission and vision
Self-examination and the creation of new educational pathways are key to our work as a Hispanic-Serving Institution.
