[quote=Anonymous]To clarify: if X% of the applicants are <some race> and the same percent of the accepted students are <some race>, that does not mean that the class is ONLY allowed to be made up of X% <some race> (which would be a quota). It does suggest that Harvard is accounting for race in admissions and trying to balance their class based off of the applicants profile. They are only accepting who they determine to be the best applicants of each race and every applicant is competing with similar applicants for each spot. If next year, half the applicants were Asian and only 20% of the admitted students were Asian, it would suggest that there is a quote of 20%.[/quote]
