Answer:

No, the US Department of Education does not consider Arizona State University to be one of the country's roughly 100 Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). In fact, Arizona is not home to any recognized HBCUs. However, the nearby state of Texas has a fair number of HBCUs. Their list includes the following colleges and universities: Huston-Tillotson University (Austin), Jarvis Christian College (Hawkins), Paul Quinn College (Dallas), Prairie View A&M University (Prairie View), Southwestern Christian College (Terrell), St. Philip's College (San Antonio), Texas College (Tyler), Texas Southern University (Houston), and Wiley College (Marshall).

There are also some HBCUs located in Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana. Those three states have the following HBCUs: University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff (Pine Bluff), Arkansas Baptist College (Little Rock), Philander Smith College (Little Rock), Shorter College (North Little Rock), Langston University (Langston), Dillard University (New Orleans), Grambling State University (Grambling), Southern University and A&M College (Baton Rouge), Southern University New Orleans (New Orleans), Southern University-Shreveport (Shreveport), and Xavier University (New Orleans).
