9781578581283: Holistic Admissions: Predicting the Likelihood for Student Success

Synopsis

Admissions criteria are inseparable from student success. Research has shown that incorporating noncognitive variables into the admissions process offers better indicators of college success than test scores alone. Though many colleges and universities were already expanding their current admissions approach beyond test scores, the disruption caused by COVID-19 has accelerated this need. It is imperative that institutions establish more precise instruments and measures to identify those students who are likely to thrive at our institutions. Holistic Admissions: Predicting the Likelihood of Student Success combines holistic theories with case studies to illustrate the complete picture of holistic admissions. It provides solid examples of how to implement consistent, legal, and manageable methods. Applying holistic measures, particularly noncognitive variables, has been shown to increase diversity and non-traditional student enrollment. The theories and research presented in this book will help establish proven, easy to implement, assessments to help in selecting students who will be successful at their institutions.
