ASU statement regarding SCOTUS Affirmative Action ruling

The U.S. Supreme Court’s decisions in Students for Fair Admissions, Inc. v. President & Fellows of Harvard and Students for Fair Admissions, Inc. v. University of North Carolina will have no impact on the diversity of the Arizona State University student body or ASU’s commitment to having a student body which reflects the population of the State of Arizona. Because ASU admits all Arizona students who meet the university’s admission requirements and does not artificially cap enrollment for students from Arizona, ASU will continue to have one of the most diverse student bodies in the country.

Since Fall 2013:
• Total enrollment at ASU grew by 85.8% (from 76,728 to 142,616 students).
• Enrollment of American Indian/Alaska Native students increased by 33.3%.
• Enrollment of Asian students increased by 122.5%.
