Notes on university admissions demographics
Universities are starting to report the racial composition of their incoming class (Class of 2028), the first report post-SFFA. As expected, most schools are reporting a change in racial composition. What to expect from @UWMadison? A few points to consider:
- UW calculates their demographics on the 10th day of classes, so 9/16. They release numbers a few days later (at the latest by Oct. 1).
- UW admitted that it used race as a factor in admissions for the Class of 2027 and prior years. In response to SFFA, it stopped (they say). So the numbers should change. Otherwise why were they using race?
