NEW YORK CITY - Following a landmark U.S. Supreme Court decision that struck down race-conscious college admissions, students of color seem undeterred from applying to these institutions, a new study by the Common Application shows.
The study, published mid-June, looked at application data from the 2019-2020 season through the 2023-2024 one in Common Application, an online platform that many colleges and universities use. They found that during the first admissions season after the landmark ruling, not much changed as far as application trends.
