One of ACE's primary goals was to inject social and economic mobility measures into the classification system, considering the importance and public scrutiny of colleges' missions and effectiveness.
The new 'social and economic mobility' classification will compare institutions based on access (diversity of students enrolled) and economic success of learners post-graduation (using earnings data).
The access indicator will consider the proportion of Pell Grant-eligible and nonwhite students enrolled, compared to their local demographics. Economic outcomes will analyze student earnings adjusted for job market geography and race.
