The National Student Legal Defense Network has released a guide on the “Dos and Don’ts of AI in College Application Evaluation,” highlighting the increasing use of artificial intelligence in college admissions.
The report advises caution due to the potential risks of AI adoption, which can introduce or amplify bias and erode applicant trust.
It emphasizes the importance of thorough analysis and assessment before deploying AI tools, including conducting written use case analysis and AI impact assessment.
The report warns against acquiring black-box, off-the-shelf AI products that staff cannot understand or evaluate.
A key “don’t” is not to use AI tools where the vendor cannot explain the model’s working and adaptability in easily understandable terms.
The tool must not compromise legal and ethical concerns during the college application evaluation process.
