CRA’s Labor & Employment Practice supports colleges and universities, together with outside counsel, in addressing legal, regulatory, and compliance challenges related to admissions practices.
We apply rigorous statistical and economic analysis to applicant, admissions, and student outcome data to assess whether admissions processes comply with evolving legal standards.
Drawing from their prior experience working with academic and other institutions, our experts bring a practical understanding of how to address and resolve government investigations and litigation. That same expertise allows us to conduct proactive risk assessments and sophisticated statistical simulations to help advance institutional objectives.
