In the 2024 reform of high-school admissions, the existing procedure was replaced with a new one based on the Deferred Acceptance algorithm. Originally proposed in 1962, this algorithm has been applied to many admission systems worldwide over the past two decades. In 2012, the Nobel Prize in Economics was awarded for this groundbreaking work. This talk will present the technical details of the algorithm and explain why it benefits students applying to high schools.
