Description
Wayne State University is seeking a qualified consulting firm to conduct an independent, data‑driven review of its School of Medicine admissions processes and the full student‑success continuum. The effort will evaluate governance, admissions‑to‑outcome linkages, student‑support services, data management, and benchmarking against peer institutions, delivering a set of actionable recommendations and a future‑state roadmap.
• Review admissions policies, committee structures, interview rubrics, scoring calibration, and use of contextual data.
• Perform longitudinal analysis of 5‑10 admissions cycles, linking admissions variables to coursework, USMLE performance, attrition, graduation, and residency placement.
• Assess student‑success services (advising, tutoring, wellness, accommodations) for staffing, effectiveness, and process efficiency.
• Map key processes (early‑alert, remediation, leave, promotion) and identify causes of delayed progression.
• Benchmark against at least five comparable public urban medical schools and produce a 12‑ to 24‑month implementation plan with governance, staffing, technology, and budget recommendations.
