Prior to the Civil War, higher education opportunities were virtually nonexistent for nearly all black
Americans. In the years following the war, more colleges sprang up to meet the educational needs of the
newly freed black population. Congress defines a historically black college or university (HBCU) as a
school “established prior to 1964, whose principal mission was, and is, the education of black Americans.”
Although these schools were established to serve black students, HBCUs have long enrolled students of
all races and ethnicities – a trend that has become more prevalent over the years. The percentage of HBCU
students who were either white, Hispanic, Asian or Pacific Islander, or Native American was 17% in 2015,
up from 13% in 1980. Hispanic students, in particular, have seen their overall shares grow on HBCU
campuses, increasing from 1.6% in 1980 to 4.6% in 2015. (

500 words minimum – 750 words maximum
For this Personal Statement Essay, please answer the following:
Why are you considering an HBCU as your transfer school? How will attending a HBCU assist

community?
