UCLA’s commitment to inclusive excellence aligns with the pursuit of the Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-Serving Institution (AANAPISI) designation.

Given UCLA’s longstanding commitment to our Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AA&NHPI) communities and as the home of the most prominent Asian American Studies department and AA&NHPI research center in the nation, UCLA is especially well positioned to be a leader within the AANAPISI community, offering a distinctive multidimensional, multiracial effort that promotes collaboration among academic departments, student affairs, counseling services, cultural centers, alumni relations, and more.
