The admissions scandal: What it is and what it is not. paid civicnation
This increased visibility for community college transfers is now driving more and more elite schools to make room for phenomenal students that have long been overlooked or ignored. Tackling the issue from the other side, efforts such as the College Promise movement seek to remove the upfront economic barriers keeping hard-working students from higher education.
If there is a silver lining to this scandal, it is that we are beginning to have an honest conversation about what it means to be admitted to elite institutions—and who is and who is not deserving of a seat in the classroom. These kinds of honest conversations will allow us to create a more equitable and accessible higher education system that helps all hard-working students reach their fullest potential.
