USC Aiken unaffected by US Supreme Court affirmative action ruling
USCA spokesperson Dr. Deidre Martin says USC Aiken does not use a point system for admissions and all students enter on equal footing. The court split included a 5-4 ruling on admission factors in general and a 6-3 ruling against Michigan's minority point system. USCA cites GPA SAT and class rank in its selection criteria while noting a 26.8 percent minority student body and average SAT 995 GPA 3.47 for 2002 entrants.
