There has been a recent surge in enrollment and applications at Historically Black Colleges and Universities. According to HBCU Connect in a July 5 report, the rising trend in Black students seeking higher education from Black spaces has been driven by a handful of factors.
Schools such as Hampton University, Virginia State University, Virginia Union University, and Howard University have been pillars exemplifying this new trend.
The most major and influential factor in the increase in applications to HBCUs has been the fact that they now have a more salient reputation. They are known as “centers of academic excellence and supportive campus environments.”
