Who We Are

We are alumni who care

FairAdmissions@MIT is an all-volunteer, not-for-profit 501(c)(3), single-issue advocacy group. Our mission is to compel MIT to adhere to both federal law and its own nondiscrimination policy by ending its decades-long undergraduate admissions practice of discriminating against qualified male applicants in order to gender-balance incoming classes. We advocate that MIT’s admissions policy should be sex-blind and based on individual merit, accepting the objectively best applicants rather than assembling a pool of good-enough applicants and then social engineering an entering class such that it collectively conforms to the ideological, political, social, and personal preferences of MIT’s admissions officers.

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology is committed to the principle of equal opportunity in education and employment. The Institute prohibits discrimination against individuals on the basis of race, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity,⁠ pregnancy, religion, disability, age, genetic information, veteran status, or national or ethnic origin in the administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, employment policies, scholarship and loan programs, and other Institute administered programs and activities; the Institute may, however, favor U.S. citizens or residents in admissions and financial aid.
