Enrollment Leaders’ Insights on Admissions Policy and Practice

Over the last two years, College Board’s new Admissions Research Consortium (ARC) surveyed enrollment leaders and researchers at 80 member colleges and research organizations. These leaders report that they remain committed to clearly communicating current policies to prospective students, giving applicants every opportunity to demonstrate their strengths when applying for admission, and helping students succeed once enrolled. This brief explores these responses in order to help bring further clarity to enrollment strategies and planning as the field looks forward toward the future of admissions policy and practice.
