Redefining Success in a Changing Higher Education Landscape

The higher education and college admission is not the same. Over the past 5 years we have witnessed a global pandemic, an overhaul in standardized testing, changes to the FAFSA, and the Supreme Court ruling that eliminated race conscious admissions. How do we help families and educators understand all of this change, especially those from marginalized and underrepresented groups? In addition to better understanding the process, how we we normalize the importance of of mental health. We want to unpack this change and look for best ways to "Redefine Success" in college admissions.
