Abstract: This study assessed the degree to which school leader preparation programs have adopted reforms in program admissions standards and practices that have been recommended in the literature since 2000, including seeking district nominations for applicants, increasing collaborative efforts, involving district personnel in instruction and intern supervision, and aligning program design with district needs.  Results indicated that closer linkage between districts and university leadership curricula are emerging, with greater attention being afforded to district needs.
