By Kimmy Yam President Donald Trump is expected to sign a directive on Thursday mandating that universities provide admissions data to prove that they are not implementing affirmative action policies, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said on X. Leavitt did not disclose the criteria that the administration will use to determine whether schools are practicing race-conscious admissions. It comes after Ivy League universities Columbia and Brown last month reached settlements that require them to release information about applicants’ race in addition to test scores and academic performance after they went back and forth with the Trump administration for months over federal funding.
