Study documents key ways that white (and sometimes Asian) students have an advantage in admissions over Black and Latinx students.

Art & Science Group, which advises colleges on their enrollment strategies, wanted to explore the issue. Today, it is releasing a study of the views of high school seniors that documents significant advantages of white students (and sometimes Asian students) in the admissions process. source
