Campus Statement

Paradise Valley Community College (PVCC) is a Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI) since 2021. This designation reflects our commitment to fostering an inclusive and supportive environment where students, staff, and faculty from all backgrounds-especially our Hispanic and Latine communities-can thrive academically and personally.

Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs) are defined by the Higher Education Act as degree-granting institutions with Full-Time Equivalent undergraduate enrollments of at least 25% Hispanic. (For the complete federal definition, please visit www.hacu.net.) PVCC has 30% of Hispanic students currently enrolled.

Servingness is a concept that argues a multidimensional and conceptual way to understand what it means to move from simply enrolling Latinx students to actually serving them. PVCC strives to become a serving institution.
