There are answers to the challenge of diversity in admissions. But sometimes those answers require trade-offs. Sometimes they require difficult and sophisticated data analysis. They also at times conflict with other realities, such as a limited number of slots available for a large number of potential applicants, funding cutbacks that eliminate remedial programs, the pressure to maintain high rankings among competing institutions and others. However, it is clear that universities and colleges can maximize search options and meet their institutional goals by abandoning one-dimensional approaches and honing recruitment strategies to make the promise of achieving diversity a reality.
