has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">This working conference will bring together leading scholars to share ongoing research on the diffusion of holistic admissions practices around the world.&nbsp;&nbsp;While many people assume that national exams like the&nbsp;<em>gaokao<\/em>&nbsp;(China), the&nbsp;<em>suneung&nbsp;<\/em>(South Korea), and the&nbsp;<em>concours<\/em>&nbsp;(France) exclusively drive admissions decision-making in countries outside the United States, many countries have adopted holistic admissions practices similar to U.S. institutions, and some have used them for a substantial proportion of incoming students for over 20 years.&nbsp;&nbsp;Many of these countries face similar challenges related to college access, admissions transparency, and the potential for corruption.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">Yet little research has been published on these admissions practices and their effects on access and diversity.&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition, the researchers who currently investigate these admissions practices are spread throughout the world and have had little opportunity to share their work and develop opportunities for collaborative inquiry that would move the field forward.&nbsp;&nbsp;The ultimate goal of this meeting is to inspire a robust, global community of admissions researchers who will inspire a research agenda for the field for many years to come.&nbsp;&nbsp;This will be pulled together into an edited volume on global admissions practices to be published for an international audience.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure
