The University of Utah has made significant advances in increasing the number of Latinx students enrolling at the university but continues to see areas of opportunities for engagement, retention, and graduation. The university remains committed to developing new ways to serve Latinx students with purpose, particularly in areas focused on increasing their sense of belonging and improving the University campus climate as a whole.
