Excluding foreign students & "other", NYU is already 70% total non-Hispanic White (30%) & Asian (40%), rather higher % than within the overall US population 46% total non-Hispanic White (40%)/ Asian (6%).

And a huge % of the foreign students are Asian as well.

College admissions are not a single-metric first-past-the-post process like time to run a marathon or votes won in an election.

Hard to argue whatever balance of quantitative/qualitative inputs they are using actually harms Asian admissions.
