At the 2025 NPEA Conference, education professionals nationwide will discuss the growing challenges to student equity and justice and reimagine education for historically marginalized communities.

Join Common App along with our college partners as we share insights into our direct admissions program, which began as a pilot in 2021 and has grown to a full-scale program with 100+ participating colleges, reaching over 400,000 students. We’ll engage in discussion around barriers students face in applying to college and learn how direct admissions serves as an access point for first-generation and low-income students, bringing joy and confidence back to the admissions process
