How universities and colleges select their students will not only determine their student quality, but also make a significant impact on the development of high school education. For this reason, this paper was designed to discuss the problems of current admissions policies and practices, and propose solutions for these problems, including the development of a testing program that has core learning ability and subject matter competency components, admissions criteria that include national test scores and high school core coursework and overall performance, and setting up the admissions office at each institution to carry out its admissions program and follow-up analyses. It is hoped that each college and university could come up with a system that would achieve both excellence and equity in college admissions and help all individuals develop their full potential.
