This online session with the New York Student Success Center will take place on November 30, 2018, at 1 p.m.

During the presentation, Elisabeth Barnett will describe early results from CAPR’s experimental study of 13,000 students at seven New York community colleges who were randomly assigned to be placed using either standardized placement tests alone (control group) or multiple measures (program group). While implementing the alternative placement system was more complex than expected, all seven colleges were successful in implementing it. And early impacts results indicate students placed using multiple methods were more likely to place into and complete college-level courses in their first term.
