Summary
The Justice Department is investigating UC Davis Medical School over allegations it used race-based admissions criteria, potentially violating federal law after the Supreme Court’s affirmative action ruling. The DOJ claims the school may have admitted applicants from certain racial groups with lower grades or test scores than white or Asian applicants — a serious accusation challenging the school’s fairness. UC Davis denies the claims, insisting its admissions are merit-based and fully compliant with the law. This probe is part of a wider DOJ review of medical school admissions nationwide, targeting institutions receiving federal funding to ensure they follow anti-discrimination laws and accurately certify their practices.
