MACAC Member CommitteesThe MACAC Board meets four times a year, rotating meeting locations among member institutions. Board members also attend full membership meetings held twice each year: in the fall, during the annual conference of the National Association for College Admission Counseling, and in the spring, during the Spring Conference or Tri-State Conference. Joining a committee can be both a learning experience and a way to connect with your colleagues. We invite you to learn more about these committees and the work they do. |
Admission PracticesThe Admission Practices Committee's primary function is to annually review NACAC's Statement of Principles of Good Practice (SPGP) in relation to current practices and procedures in college admission. |
