In 2023, Lumina Foundation launched The Great Admissions Redesign—a bold initiative challenging higher education systems, institutions, and state agencies to rethink admissions from the ground up. The aim: transform outdated, inequitable processes into streamlined, student-centered experiences. With more than 70 proposals from 32 states and U.S. territories, the movement sparked innovations that focused on clarity, automation, and simplicity for students and families.
Now, two years into this ambitious effort, we’re inviting you to join us for a live podcast on Today’s Student Tomorrow’s Talent Wednesday, September 4, at 1 p.m. EST to hear what we’ve learned. From new tools to statewide policy wins, our grantees are reshaping what’s possible—and what’s next—in college admissions. This podcast will surface powerful insights and real stories from the field that illuminate how change happens—and where it’s heading. Don’t miss this timely conversation on the future of access and equity in higher education.
