| *Vanderbilt Owen Graduate School of Management follows federal guidelines from the Department of the Interior for collecting data on race and ethnicity. This allows applicants who are U.S. Citizens and permanent residents to self-identify their ethnicity and race with the option to select more than one race and/or ethnicity. The Federal Guidelines column reflects all students who identify as Hispanic/Latino and any other race as Hispanic/Latino only. Students who identify with more than one race are represented as Multi-Race only. The Race/Ethnicity by Representation column reflects students’ full racial and ethnic identities to better represent the multiple identities shared in their application, so this column adds up to more than 71% as students may be represented in more than one row. | ||
