Excelencia in Education, founded in 2004, accelerates Latino learner success in higher education to address the U.S. economy’s need for an educated workforce and for civic leadership by:

  • Providing data-driven analysis of the educational status of Latinos
  • Promoting education policies and institutional practices that support their academic achievement
  • Organizing a network of professionals with a common cause for Latino student success

Excelencia has been developing strategic research to bring to the forefront what we know about Latino student success, what works to improve it, and what decision makers can do.

Examples of Excelencia's work include:

  • Post-completion efforts at Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs)
  • Latino college completion
  • HSI's role in economic mobility
  • Environmental scan of Puerto Rico
  • Information about eHSIs (Emerging Hispanic-Serving Institutions), and gHSIs (Hispanic-Serving Institutions with Graduate programs)
  • Providing data, fact sheets, and other resources.
  • Seal of Excelencia Framework
    • The framework integrates essential components of transformation into a comprehensive institutional strategy for intentionally serving learners.
