What if admissions could be done in a totally new way? Without tests? Without the many parts of the process think of legacy admissions that favor wealthier applicants?
The National Association for College Admission Counseling has just created a commission to rethink the entire admissions process through a racial equity lens.
NACAC has identified three priority areas for the commission: The college-entrance pipeline, from student recruitment and college advising through the application process and admission criteria. Postsecondary financial aid requirements. The role of racial equity in postsecondary enrollment.
The panel is aiming for three reports by this summer: a guide for colleges centered on racial/ethnic inclusion, a related guide for postsecondary institutional leaders and recommendations for federal and state policy makers for an equity-based college transition.
