Bienvenidos!

Rutgers University offers many academic and extracurricular opportunities to discover and critically explore the history, culture and the arts of Latinos in the United States and around the world.

The Latino presence at Rutgers goes back to the late 1800s, but has greatly expanded in numbers and scope since the late 1960s. Please check out the Latinos at Rutgers: A Timeline, available for download as a PDF document.

Just this past year, 3,125 Latino students chose to enroll at Rutgers-New Brunswick. In additon, we recieved over 160 international students from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Domican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico, Panama, Peru, Uruguay, Spain and Venezuela.

Whether you are Latina/o, or just seeking to learn more about Latino, Hispanic, and Latin American arts and culture, there is a community here at Rutgers where you can find common ground and call home!
