*Note that beginning in 2009-10 St. Olaf began reporting race/ethnicity in the new federally-required categories. The new format allows for individuals to self-identify with more than one race and/or ethnicity. Non-Hispanics who identify more than one race are reported as "Two or more races." Hispanics and Non-resident International students are identified in those categories only. For the US Dept of Education, National Center for Education Statistics (NCES)race/ethnicity definitions, please click here. The Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) reporting categories are described here.
