SCOTUS ruled that universities can't use race as a factor for admission. Like, at all. Asian demographics are usually scoring higher on these tests.
None of this has anything to do with antitrust.

For example, they preferentially admit people by zipcode, i.e. by the degree to which the neighborhood is non-white, non-Jewish, and non-Asian. They encourage applicants to write about their experiences with discrimination in their applicant letters. They also accept people scoring in the top percentage of grades at a school (which preferentially admits students from worse schools with lower standards i.e. students from black and Hispanic schools). I assume they use a variety of other techniques as well.
