College admissions in the United States is an extensive and complex process that often creates barriers to students accessing a postsecondary education. With support from Lumina Foundation, Research for Action conducted 1) a study on the national landscape of admissions redesign and 2) an evaluation of the three implementation grants awarded through The Great Admissions Redesign, an initiative to support the reshaping and simplifying of the admissions process to transform how potential students apply, enroll, and access a postsecondary education.
This toolkit provides resources for policymakers and postsecondary practitioners working to adopt or strengthen admissions redesign at the state/system level.
