I also find that the admissions reps do not always understand the requirements for certification or licensing in ALL the programs they interview for, leaving students to begin with misconceptions.

Schools should have an aptitude test/ interest checklist to help define the appropriate trade(s) for students to select. I have had students come through who will clearly never make it in my trade.
