College Board Is Discontinuing Landscape Tool Aimed at Finding Low-Income High Achievers

I’m also pretty confident holistic review colleges that want to think about admissions in this sort of contextual way will continue to do so.

I also understand why people did not like the lack of complete transparency around Landscap.

But on the other hand, I found myself occasionally pointing people to the public materials available about Landscape as a way of at least getting an idea of what contextual review can look like in practice.

So to me this feels like a further step away from transparency. But I understand why it happened, so oh well.
