a ballpark figure: 25% of the roughly 1200 person basic science student body.

some semesters more, some less.

i see your point. lots of students from the middle east here as well. you wouldnt know it by how they look though. in any case, there seems to be lots of ethnic diversity in campus.

Indian

Ross has the biggest percentage of indian students in the carib and U.S. as stated by the medical student admission office. You will be amazed by the variety of students on the campus.

why does it matter

Why does it matter how many students of variious ethnic backgounds go to Ross or any other school for that matter. I think the days of segregation are over. I think that a school with many American students would be well diversified. If you look at the US medical schools you will see a good number of Indian, Packistan, oriental students. Forwhat ever reason their culture believes in education and that is why they become doctors.

asians

Singer, "oriental" is referred to things such as rugs, not people.
