Is every minority applicant admitted?
A. No. The average offer rate for the last 10 years has been: 29% for Caucasian applicants, 26% for African American applicants, 35% for Native American applicants, 25% for Latino applicants, 22% for Asian American applicants. Q10. If racial diversity is so important, why doesn’t the Law School admit a higher percentage of minority applicants each year? For example, since almost 13% of the American population is African American, why are just 6% of this year’s 352 entering students African American? A. Racial diversity of the student body is only one of many considerations that the Law School takes into account when it makes admissions decisions. The choice among applicants requires the Law School to consider all of the qualities that are reflected in each applicant’s file.
