<p>@scholarme 34 out of the 75 Asian-American Freshmen last year were in honors. This fall my son who is Asian-American will be joining those ranks. When we went for Bama Bound last month, we did not feel any racial tension. We did see other Asian students walking the campus, could not tell you if they were international or domestic. </p>
<p>CBHP will have 2 Asian-Americans in this years class. My guess is that this year’s Asian-American enrollment will again increase due in large part to the generous merit scholarships, in part with higher perceived quality of education at UA, and growing OOS student body demographics. </p>
<p>@Hunt is probably correct that UA doesn’t discriminate against Asians but Asians have chosen not to apply in the past because of similar mentality of @oldmom4896. We too were concerned about the lack of Asian-Americans attending UA, but having seen the school and talked to those who attend and run the school, we no longer have such concerns.</p>
