Abstract

This chapter presents organizational templates for advisors and admissions officers when describing or evaluating competency development among prospective students. Using these templates, stakeholders can articulate the strengths and capabilities of individual applicants based on information provided on their applications and letters of evaluation. Each major characteristic and competency are described with example sources identified to demonstrate the concept of “knows how, shows how, and does” for competency development. These concepts are generally reinforced in holistic review training for admissions staff and faculty evaluators to provide a consistent standard of assessment, especially in reviewing letters of evaluation.
