Can funds be used to assist the admissions process in adjusting to whole file review?
Yes. Moving to a whole file review process is complex. For example, further work may be necessary in preparing electronic files to facilitate the whole file review of candidates. Formalizing a process to take into account attributes of candidates other than the quantitative scores such as DAT and GPA may be necessary, and require the school to get additional assistance to accomplish that task. However, a school should already have adopted a policy to subscribe to a whole file review prior to the submission of the grant application.
