A coop board has carte blance to decide whom they allow in or not. Even former Presidents of the United States have been rejected by coop boards. Boards do not need to justify their decisions, so suing for discrimination will go nowhere.

Actually, their rejecting you may have been the best thing that could happen. If their criteria for selection is so arbitrary and illogical, then imagine the trouble you would have as an owner trying to SELL the coop. I bet the current coop owner is rather PO'd at the board now, since they've just killed his sale. Good luck in finding a condo.
