Toronto Star reporter Janet Hurley details the way that Canadian universities are engaging alumni to support in the process of evaluating applications. Hurley offers an overview of how the University of Waterloo draws on its alumni and AI tools to review supplementary material from applicants to competitive undergraduate programs. “We saw it as a great opportunity to have alumni re-engage with UWaterloo,” said UWaterloo Associate Registrar, Admissions André Jardin. Hurley also describes how the University of British Columbia and the University of Toronto use alumni volunteers in the admissions process to assess applicants’ personal profiles.
