I do not mean this in any offensive way, but is it true that african americans have a higher chance of acceptance than whites or asians with similar accomplishments?

These may just be rumors but ive heard of african americans with lower scores or accomplishments getting in over whites or asians with higher accomplihsments. and i know its not all scores and accomplishments but im just really curious as to whether there is any truth in it at all.
