Some US universities do consider race in admission.
It is called "affirmative action".
White people need to be better than black people for university admission.
Asian people need to be better than white people for university admission.
And this consideration of race is done officially.
I have never heard about a German university officially stating that
they are giving preferred treatment in admission for people with Turkish
roots because they are underrepresented among students.
Officially asking people about their ancestry in university admission
would also remind people of terms like Ariernachweis and Halbjude,
which makes the holocaust a reason against doing that in Germany.
