    Three years after the pandemic spurred a technology revolution at colleges across the country, a new set of advances is changing the game again. Beyond virtual-first admissions platforms and streamlined online applications, what’s on the horizon?

    We’ll take a look at “How Technology Is Changing Admissions Work” in this coming virtual forum, on Tuesday, September 19 at 2 p.m. ET. We’ll explore key considerations for the future of tech in admissions, including:

    • What’s changed since the pandemic, and what remains the same?
    • Where do opportunities exist with generative AI?
    • How can AI tools help admissions officers create stronger interpersonal connections with applicants?
