UCLA- as Diverse as Los Angeles County

Being in Los Angeles, UCLA is really diverse. Statistically, Caucasians are a majority, but the Asian ethnicities are very present at UCLA, and most international students are from Asian countries. There is also a strong presence of other ethnicities, as seen through the cultural clubs for Latinos/Latinas, African-Americans, and various Middle Eastern ethnic groups.

Moreover, there are many different religious groups on campus. Although there are many Christian groups, there are also Buddhist, Jewish, Atheist, and Muslim groups on campus as well. There is also a Catholic center near campus, and the center actually hosts many different religious clubs' meetings.

There is also a strong acceptance of the LGBT community, and they have their own office in the Student Activities center.

Mostly Asian and White Students

It seems as though a vast majority of the school is composed of Asian and White students, and though you do see some African Americans scattered around the campus, many of them belong to athlete programs. There is a fairly sized Hispanic base in the school, but it is overshadowed by the overwhelming Asian base.

Huge Diversity

There are many different races at UCLA, but a large portion of the student body is either Asian or white. We have people of all sorts of religion because I see lots of different clubs dedicated to the different religions.
