Abstract	This new ACT publication is an annual report offering meaningful research insights for some of the most pressing questions impacting admissions and enrollment practice. In the first release of this report, ACT research sheds light on the following topics: (1) the practice of super-scoring; (2) STEM major choice; (3) factors impacting retention and transfer; (4) test optional admission policy; and (5) benefits for students who opt in to the ACT Educational Opportunity Service (EOS). Readers of the digest will also find a high-level overview of an interactive database of ACT-tested students that enrollment managers, admissions personnel, and other college administrators can use to examine students' characteristics, preferences, college search behaviors, and enrollment and retention patterns.
