NACAC members did vote this morning to remove 3 provisions in their Code of Ethics:

At the 2019 National Conference meeting in Louisville, the NACAC Assembly voted this morning to remove three provisions from the association’s Code of Ethics and Professional Practice (CEPP) that the US Department of Justice (DOJ) believes inhibit, to some extent, competition among colleges for students. The three provisions address offering exclusive incentives for Early Decision, recruiting first-year undergraduates who have committed elsewhere, and recruiting transfer students.

NACAC will resume its discussions with the DOJ to ensure that the investigation is resolved as swiftly as possible. Association leaders are confident that NACAC can and will remain a champion for the ethical practice of college admission and a steadfast advocate for protecting students in their transition to higher education.

“By voting to remove these provisions, the association has demonstrated good faith in our effort to comply with the department’s investigation,” said NACAC CEO Joyce E. Smith. “In so doing, we remain committed to finding ways to best serve students, secondary schools, and postsecondary institutions in the transition from secondary to postsecondary education.”
