Minority really isn't that big of a deal...

well look at that right there.</p>

<p>alumni students have a 40% admit rate. </p>

<p>If the admission rate for non-alumni whites is 7.1%, and the average admission rate comes out to 10%, then </p>

<p>625 white non-alumni, non international 7.1% admit rate
200 Alumni children 39% admit rate
(princeton has about 17% black/hispanic)
300 black/hispanic & 490 asian 13%
175 international 6% </p>

<p>If we assume that asians have the same admit rates as non-hooked white students, 7%</p>

<p>Then the admit rate for black and hispanic students INCLUDING athletes is 22%. Without athletes it would probably come out to something like 16%-18%. So yes obviously affirmative action increases admit rates. But only at about 8% for non-athletes. </p>

<p>Now if you compare them non black/Hispanics you come out to them having roughly an 8% admit rate. </p>

<p>The ones who get the real boost here are the almost exclusively white alumni children who get a 32% admissions boost when compared to non-hooked applicants. That's more than twice as large as the 14% (including athletes) increased rate that urms experience.

<p>Tyler,</p>

<p>I request a more detailed statistic analysis. Namely, how’d you get 22%?</p>
