Perhaps more informative is the part of the article that reports the appeals court's reasoning, 

The three-judge panel of the 1st Circuit said the trial judge was wrong in instructing the jury that admissions slot constitutes “property" of the universities under the mail and wire fraud law. The judges found that the government also failed to prove that the parents agreed to join the “overarching conspiracy among Singer and his clients."s."

Would like to understand a little more about the property argument.
