Abstract

In alignment with the efforts of iCount to bring awareness to the disparities that are concealed by vast generalizations about AAPI students, this study utilizes data from the University of California Undergraduate Experience Survey (UCUES) and qualitative interviews (see Technical Appendix for further detail) to examine the experiences of AAPI students on the UCLA campus. As one of a few studies focusing specifically on campus racial climate and AAPI students, this report brings to light three key themes that can advance the need to more carefully examine AAPI student experiences, in order to improve their educational experiences and outcomes.
