What Is an Admissions Readiness Assessment?
An admissions readiness assessment is a short, guided experience that helps students understand:
- Whether they are a strong candidate for acceptance
- Which majors or programs align with their interests and strengths
- What steps they should take next
At the same time, institutions gain:
- Qualified inquiries
- Intent signals
- Structured data beyond basic forms
