Evan Lawson

Transfer of Credits

I am new to Admissions, but I find it especially challenging to get prospective students to understand that it is up to the receiving school whether or not they will accept credits from another school. Does anyone else get any disagreements from students on this and if so what do you tell them?

Wayne Ford

New Position in Admissions but not an Admissions Rep

I have been promoted to Business Development Representative. In my role, I will secure non-title IV funding for students. I will also be responsible for organizing and developing relationships with state agencies, employers and military organizations to possibly create leads for Admissions Representatives. So why is agency traning a requirement?

Compliance

It seems that in todays age with all the schools that are offering programs, it is very important to know that you are compliant. It makes you have trust in the school you work for as well. Also compliance of all rules can give you job security.

Natasha Woody

Knowing your Stuff!!!!

I think it is very vital to your job as well as the institution for you to know every aspect of what you do in admissions. Sometimes the best experience can come from being a previous student or current.

Natasha Woody

Importance of honesty

I think its very important to keep the honesty with the student and informing them of everything even if it wasnt required of the state. This builds good rapport and credibility for the school and yourself.

Diploma Mills

I can appreciate that there are strict regulations in place for diploma mills. It keeps legitimate schools like ours in good standing. :-)

The Importance of Keeping Up-to-Date Information

It is crucial to maintain up-to-date information in order to be the best agent or admissions representative that you can be. Being informed on updated rules, laws, poclicies, etc. will ensure that you are doing your job correctly, which will then benefit prospective students.

Gina Heald

Double check your work!

It is important to double check your paperwork in order to maintain a smooth process for both the student and yourself. Double checking helps avoid unecessary mistakes and questions, and helps the enrollment process to move in an organized, swift fashion.

Being the change that alot of students are looking for...

I would like to say I believe this is a very rewarding career that you get to impact peoples lifes by being the first contact to a new future and pairing them up with all resources and people needed to succeed.This takes a team effort and with a great start they will have a fablous ending.

Kathleen Haggins

Maintaining Integrity

Integrity is a fundamental attribute,that I live by. So in the workplace this is very easily adhered to. Giving full disclosure should always be at the fore front of presenting a student with information that will effect there lives in the future. Students look to College personnel as advocates and rely on the information given to be reliable. The gainful employment regulation is a great bench mark for determining whether certain programs can lead to gainful employment in a certain field. So integrity is the key to success in higher education.

Rommie Smith

How did you handle it within the proper rules and regulations of your Institution?
