"The medical school continues to intentionally discriminate against applicants based on their race after the Supreme Court's decision in Harvard by granting and denying admission on the basis of race."
"Investigators alleged that UCLA leadership intentionally selected applicants based on their race and adhered to the dubious contention that patients receive the best care when treated by a doctor of the same race."
UCLA's David Geffen School of Medicine has been accused by the Department of Justice of unlawfully using race in admissions decisions, specifically against white and Asian American applicants. This practice violates a 2023 Supreme Court ruling that prohibits race-conscious admissions. The DOJ's findings stem from a year-long investigation under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, which prohibits race-based discrimination. Allegations include intentional selection of applicants based on race and adherence to the belief that patients receive better care from doctors of the same race.
