Affirmative action decision will have ‘minimal impact’ at SRU

The U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling on affirmative action at colleges will have “little to no impact” on admissions at Slippery Rock University.

Amanda Yale, chief enrollment officer at SRU, said the institution mainly assesses prospective students by their submitted transcripts, and the application process has not required an essay for at least 25 years.

She said the university tries to promote not only racial diversity, but other forms of diversity among its students as well.
