@JohnHolbein1 What's significant is not just the policy but the size of the institutions using them: together, the 4 UCS in the @zbleemer paper enroll almost twice as many Pell-eligible freshmen as the 12 Ivy+ colleges combined.

🚨 #JMP 🧵 🚨 Means testing in college aid “taxes” parent income (more income = less aid). This “tax” is complex. I find: Parents reduce income when it affects aid. Misperception of tax *increases* efficiency cost by $19M/year in CA alone! #EconTwitter njgebbia.github.io/PaperRepositor…

6/ This @zbleemer study of the effects of boosting the admissions chances of students with high grades and below-average SATs is also very compelling. It's a net plus for society, because the high-testing students they displace do fine somewhere else. files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/ED613…

“There’s a tremendous focus on super-selective private universities,” says @zbleemer. “The big impact won’t be selective private universities. It will be at selective public universities.” Things to consider in advance of the upcoming SCOTUS decisions:journalistsresource.org/education/affi…

UCSD has significantly reformed it's selective major change policy to heavily advantage California residents, first-generation college students, and students from low-income families. @SteveMillerOC this may be of interest to you.

Short thread about my job market paper: Last week Yale joined Dartmouth and MIT in reinstating the SAT. My paper shows that banning the SAT harms the ability of selective schools, in particular, to admit the strongest students.
@ProfDavidDeming @rothstein_jesse @JakeVigdor An important point here that @zbleemer had helped clarify in my mind is that the goals of private and public institutions are distinct and may call for different admissions criteria/practices.
I would say it’s Ivy League Obsession Day, but then again, every day is.
Thrilled to see @zbleemer's excellent work get the attention it deserves.
"I'm concerned that other very different universities will join the bandwagon of the return to the SAT," says @zbleemer, Princeton Prof, who researched Univ of CA schools that admitted students with high GPAs & low test scores who did well. npr.org/2024/02/05/122…

@ModeledBehavior @zbleemer @JohnHolbein1 Exactly
@JohnHolbein1 Cool paper. This paper by the late, great Rodney Andrews, and co-authors on the Texas top 10 program comes to mind: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
When University of California schools adopted this top 4% policy and admitted more low-income kids w/ high grades but low SAT scores, critics argued "many of the new students will simply flunk out and the policy will be discredited." What actually happened ⬇️
You know those policies that some universities have that admit the top X% of each high school in the state? They're really good for disadvantaged students. They increase graduation rates and annual salaries of disadvantaged students *a lot*. zacharybleemer.com/wp-content/upl…
This policy rolled out while I was in high school and I can attest to how it changed lives of so many people I know.

@zbleemer @JohnHolbein1 Thanks for the links. Driving up housing costs is the negative way to look at it, but it seems like reducing economic segregation is a desirable outcome
@JohnHolbein1 @nytdavidbrooks Absolutely agree
