Abstract	The Latino population in the United States has grown significantly over the last decade, and Latina representation has grown more quickly than that of Latinos. Expanding Latina representation in postsecondary programs is critical to meeting the nation's future workforce and civic leadership needs. This fact sheet provides an overview of the Latina population and outlines college enrollment and educational attainment of Latinas at Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs) -- a critical set of institutions enrolling and graduating Latinos in the U.S. Key findings include: (1) Latina degree attainment at HSIs increased by 52% from 2015 to 2020 -- a faster rate compared to Latinos, who saw 44% growth over the same period; (2) Almost half of all women (48%) and nearly two-thirds of the total Latino population (60%) enrolled at HSIs in 2020 were Latina; (3) In 2021, 53% of Latina adults had earned a high school education or less, while 29% had earned an associate degree or higher; and (4) Of degrees earned by Latinas at HSIs in 2020, the majority were at the undergraduate level -- 39% of Latinas earned an associate degree, and 33% earned a bachelor's.
