About this book

Selling Hope and College takes up a long-standing belief about admissions: that applicants are sorted by ability, sending the strongest to elite universities and the rest to other institutions, each in its proper place. The book looks at that assumption through the lens of merit, markets and recruitment at a school that is not ranked.

The subtitle names the three threads that run through the book: merit, markets and recruitment. It is published by ILR Press under ISBN-13 9781501709821, and the author is Alex Posecznick.
