New analysis using federal enrollment data reported changes in racial composition at the nation’s most selective colleges after the Supreme Court’s 2023 Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard decision. The report found that nearly 70% of the most selective institutions—those admitting fewer than 15% of applicants—saw declines in underrepresented minority enrollment from fall 2022 to fall 2024. At these selective colleges, underrepresented minority students fell by about 15% and Black students by 26%, while nationwide underrepresented minority enrollment increased by 11% in share and Black enrollment by 8%. The article notes that institutions that rose accounted for roughly 110,000 students in growth, while declines clustered among about one in three institutions. For admissions and compliance leaders, the data indicates that post-SFFA enrollment impacts are highly uneven: top-tier schools may experience measurable demographic shifts that shape recruitment strategy, first-year planning, and campus support structures.
