Who's invited

When holding weekly staff meetings, who, besides the Admissions Reps, should be present?

Resource Notebook

With as often as things update, I plan to set a recurring Outlook appointment to remind myself to check for updates. What other techniques are people using to stay up to date?

Regulations and Paperwork

I appreciate the opportunity to print all of this information to formulate a handy quick reference as a new representative. How are others utilizing the information?

Transferring credits

After completing this section I understand that there are written policies about transferring credits to every institution and that this is something that everyone should be aware of in order to better impact our students.

Student Services

I work at Lakewood College and I'm so excited about the amount of programs that we are offering here.

Resouce Notebook

As an Agent, it is vital to keep all materials updated. I have personally placed all current marketing materials, in addition to a tab with all laws and regulation in my resouce notebook. I keep it handy by the phone and will update at the least once a month. What other materials are you keeping in your resource notebook?

Catalog and Enrollment Agreement

It is highly recommended that an agent familiarize themselves with their institutions catalog and enrollment agreement. While you can answer any prospective students questions, you can also reference the answer in writing in the catalog.

Transferring Credits

Does your school transfer credits? Why or why not?

Degree vs. Non Degree

How do you tell a student if they would be more interested in a degree or non degree program>?

Average Pay

Do you think a school should advertise the average pay it's graduate are earning?

Accreditation

Hi, after reading this I understand more about the factors which my institution is accredited under. I also need to find out about our credits about their transfer conditions.

Student Services

I work at Lakewood College and Im very excited that after reviewing the services that student services can provide. My school offers most of all of the services, which makes me feel great about my institution.

Enrollment Agreement

Hi, Im Jacqui. I just found out that in the student services division I will be handling getting the students to sign their enrollment agreement so this section was very helpful to me. Would anyone recommend printing out the information ?

Resource Notebook

Hey everyone ! I am a new student services representative and I was wondering how useful the resource notebook was to everyone else once they started their new position ?

admissions

I agree that it is important for an Admissions Advisor to have information about Financial Aid. As an advisor, you don't want to know too much financial information because it can pose as a conflict of interest.

Weekly vs Monthly Staff Meetings

Do you prefer weekly or monthly staff meetings? Is their a benefit over the other? Outside of reviewing main objectives, what can be implemented during this time so that employees don't feel like this is another "task"?

Staying Up to Date and Compliant

The section on Compliance was very helpful. It was nice to review the Resource Notebook and I wrote down the Sections of how each item or Subject should be outlined and I will follow this exsmple. It was valuable to understand that once a month, i should review the Ohio Regulatory Website for updates and to ensure Compliance for myself and my Institution.

Understanding Your Institution

The information provided a greater degree understanding of the entire process from A to Z. I was able to see how the Process of Having a school, being either accredited or approved, is not the same. I did not know until today that an Accredation is "voluntarily". I thought this was something mandatory by each state.

Admissions Rep and Paperwork

The subject was laid out very well and the information was very helpful. I understand from a greater vantage point the importance that All Rules and Regulations are followed and understand that I must be aware at all times that I am not only putting myself at risk for negligence but also ITT could be in jeopardy if I fail to do the incorrect thing or say the incorrect thing.
