The U.S. Department of Justice took aim at Yale University’s medical school admissions, accusing the school of illegally considering race despite the Supreme Court’s ban on affirmative action in college admissions. In a letter, DOJ Civil Rights assistant attorney general Harmeet Dhillon said DOJ investigators found Black and Hispanic applicants had a higher admission likelihood than white or Asian applicants, even with lower GPAs and test scores. DOJ said it is seeking a voluntary resolution agreement and warned it could sue under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 if Yale does not comply. Yale said its School of Medicine is confident in its rigorous admissions process and will review the DOJ letter. The action follows similar federal scrutiny of other medical schools, including DOJ notice to UCLA last week. The widening enforcement campaign increases compliance pressure on medical and professional programs that use holistic review models, documentation, and internal demographic analytics.
