Thousands of students produce sophisticated, original academic work each year that goes entirely unnoticed by admissions officers. The students who need this most are already doing the work — they just lack a stage.
GPAs are not comparable across 27,000 high schools. Personal essays are routinely coached and increasingly AI-generated. NACAC agrees that standardized tests don't help, and over 1,900 colleges have gone test-optional.
They've opted out without anything to opt into. Admissions officers are left making life-altering decisions based on grade-inflated GPAs, AI-polished personal essays, and formulaic recommendation letters.
Performance-based assessment is the acknowledged gold standard — but it cannot scale. A university receiving 50,000 applications cannot hire trained readers to review a portfolio of authentic student work for every candidate.
