Maharishi University of Management (MUM) has been ranked #36 among the best colleges for diversity nationwide by College Factual, a website that uses customizable tools and outcomes-based rankings systems to guide students through the college selection process.

A number of factors were used to determine the diversity ranking, which includes both research universities and liberal arts colleges. The overall diversity ranking takes into account the ethnic diversity of the students, male to female ratio, and geographic origin, including number of international students.

In addition to MUM's placement in Overall Diversity, the institution also scored well in Top Gender Diversity, earning a 19 spot out of 1,564.

According to the website, both of these reflect MUM's high quality of education compared to other schools.

MUM has long had an international focus, and therefore when we say we have people of color at MUM, we mean all colors, and many countries and many ages and experience levels as well.

This creates a rich classroom and living environment where, as an MUM student, one can make friends from all over the world who embody a broad range of cultural and personal perspectives.

Everyone here benefits from the shared experience of self-development, an integral part of MUM’s Consciousness-Based education environment. No matter what background one comes from, they will enjoy a great feeling of commonality, trust, and connection that comes from the most basic field of one’s own consciousness, which everyone at MUM experiences daily.

MUM is all about diversity—but there is a lot of underlying unity as well. MUM is an example of unity in diversity. Put another way, uni–versity. . . in more ways than one!
