A two-year investigation into Yale found that “race is the determinative factor in hundreds of admissions decisions each year,” the DOJ says.
Key Points
A two-year investigation into the Ivy League school found that "race is the determinative factor in hundreds of admissions decisions each year," in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the DOJ said. Yale University's undergraduate admissions process "illegally discriminates" against White and Asian students, the Department of Justice said Thursday.
Yale denied the allegation. Karen Peart, a spokeswoman for the university, said in a statement to CNBC that the Justice Department made its conclusions before Yale had provided enough information to show that its practices "absolutely comply with decades of Supreme Court precedent."
