Asian-Americans in Harvard’s Incoming Class More Than Double, to 43.2 Percent
Free Beacon ^ | 10/27/2026 | Ira Stoll

Newly released data on the Harvard College class of 2030 say the class is 43.2 percent Asian-American, a record high and more than double the level when Students for Fair Admissions first sued Harvard alleging racial discrimination in admissions.

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in 2023 that Harvard was unlawfully using race as a factor in admissions. Since then, the numbers of Hispanic and black students in the incoming Harvard classes have dipped, while the numbers of Asian-Americans have soared.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

If this is true, maybe Harvard has actually ascended slightly from the depths of max woke/DEI insanity.

Glad to see those with demonstrated competence represent a larger cohort of the student body.

So be it. The school is open to all qualified individuals.
You just have to make the Grade.
May the best students graduate!

The Immigration Act of 1965 in full effect. Itself a consequence of the 1960 fraudulent Presidential election. Fraud has long term consequences.

And the group that has been discriminated against more than any other?....I’m talking of course about White Men - especially Straight White Men. They represent over 30% of the population. What percent of the Haaaahvahhhd incoming class are they?

I got into MIT under the “Arizona quota”!

But I ended up in the top quarter of my class, was inducted into Sigma Xi, and won an NSF Graduate Fellowship!

Might a white or Hispanic Arizonan admitted into MIT or Harvard in 2026 do as well as I did?

Sounds like the Chinamen have joined with the Muzzies, Mexicans, Latinies, Caribbeaners and Africans to decide who is going to take over the fallen and destroyed America.

If they have the grades and test scores to be accepted to Harvard, they should be admitted and those who do not meet Harvard’s qualifications should be rejected.

There were 24.8 million Asians in the United States in 2023, making up 7% of the total national population, according to estimates published by the U.S. Census Bureau. Six Times over their general population level….🤔 must be a lot of dumb Americans.

“Glad to see those with demonstrated competence”

A lot we don’t know:

How many applicants qualified for admission? Only some can be admitted because Harvard’s capacity for incoming freshmen.

The high proportion of Asians doesn’t mean there were too few Whites that qualified.

Also, maybe the Asians that were admitted came with lots of money to pay full out-of-country admission fees. Maybe a lot of whites and their parents decided that Harvard wasn’t worth the money or instilled bad social values and so didn’t apply.

Hopefully, they are smart enough and have enough common sense that they don’t fall prey to the brainwashing.

“Maybe a lot of whites and their parents decided that Harvard wasn’t worth the money or instilled bad social values and so didn’t apply.”

Tons of Jewish kids didn’t bother with the Ivy Leagues. Applications for Jewish kids dropped 50%. They used to make up 20-40% of enrollment.

Far too dangerous and hostile locations. They make up a plurality of the white kids, normally.

They moved to schools in the South, like Vanderbilt, Rice, etc.

What is the breakdown between Chinese, Indian, etc.? Asian is too big of a category to be meaningful.

If you go back 75 years ago, the core of Ivy League student bodies were the descendants of colonial era British, Protestant immigrants who settled and largely stayed in the Northeastern states. In other words, WASPs. What happened to that population? First, generations of small families reduced the raw numbers of that population. While traditional Protestant theology emphasized large, patriarchal families, affluence and the effects of liberalism on the mainline denominations discouraged the creation of new families. Additionally, the effects of birth control availability, legalized abortion, first wave and second wave feminism, and liberalized divorce laws discouraged childbirth and stable marriages.

The numbers tell the story: presently only about 15% of the population of the affluent Upper East Side of Manhattan, historically a WASP stronghold in NYC, are white Protestants.

The governing boards of the Ivy League universities were browbeaten by the mainstream media and liberals within their own ranks during the post-World War II era to end quotas on admission of Jews, thereby greatly reducing the legacy effect, where the children of Ivy League alumni received preferential treatment in admissions. The decline of the traditional banking and finance firms starting in the New Deal era and accelerated in the mid and late 20th Century resulted in newer firms, many of which were run by Jews, to become the leaders of the financial world, helping to end the WASP dominance of the boards of directors of the Ivy League universities.

Entering this century, the ideology of radical egalitarianism and guilt for past abuses of blacks led to a new quota system, favoring blacks and others "of color", unless the colors were those of East and South Asians, over whites of any stripe. The immigrants from India, China, Japan, and South Korea were very much driven by wanting to succeed, the stereotype of the "tiger mom". Asian Americans used the court system, much as Jews used negative publicity 70-80 years ago to overturn the new quota system.

I would like to see the exact percentage of white USA males who donated and invested Harvard's $68 billion endowment!

My guess - at least 80%.

My daughter-in-law graduated from Harvard in 1997. I swear she was the only blue eyed blonde in the entire year book.

Visiting the Columbia campus about three years ago, I thought I was in Beijing.
