Research for Action (RFA) conducted case studies of eight postsecondary institutions across eight states/systems with multiple measures policies. Data were drawn from interviews with administrators and faculty members involved in the student placement process, as well as from student focus groups and document review. Based on our analysis of this information, short profiles were developed describing the implementation of multiple measures on each campus, highlighting the measures and placement process, as well as promising practices, challenges and issues with implementation. The profiles were verified by the institutions. For key takeaways and lessons from across these institutions, please click here.
