Why Diversity Matters

Diversity can be somewhat of a buzzword with students and university admissions officers. For the purposes of producing diversity scores, College Factual defines diversity as the most plurality. Schools that score high in diversity metrics are those with the greatest variety in ethnicity, gender, age, and geographic location of origin.

Questions About Diversity

  • What do we mean when we refer to diversity in college?

    Largely speaking, diversity is the word we use to describe a mixture of individuals and ideas, and the traditions, belief cultures and systems that come with them. When most students seek diversity on a college campus, what they are looking for are opportunities to express themselves and find community with others who believe the same way, as well as opportunities to learn from those from different cultures and backgrounds.

  • How is Bethel doing at supporting students from all financial backgrounds?

    Schools with otherwise excellent racial and ethnic diversity still may not be diverse when it comes to other factors, such as income levels. Get a better idea of how Bethel supports low-income students by visiting the Financial Aid Page.

  • Is Diversity Important to Bethel?

    Call the school to find out what they are doing to stimulate diversity, and what student clubs, groups and associations are available that encourage diversified points of views on campus.
