Hi, I'm Megan.

I've been working abotu 4 years in higher education and I love it. I always thought that I would be a Career Student; I didn't realize I could have a career working with students! So I switched after getting my Master's to workign in Ed.Admin. Still get excited about it on a daily basis.

Keeping Supervisers in-Check

If you see supervisers doing things that may be on the edge of the policies/procedures, how do you broach the subject with them? I've never run into this but it seems like that could be an awkward discussion at the very least.

What do you do next?

Get them interested and then move onto the financial aid process? That sounds pretty typical. Just so long as the students don't recieve and false information before getting to the FA discussion.

Military to Civilian Admissions

My background is predominately in military Active Duty and Veteran enrollment in college. Recently, I began working with a predominately civilian enrollment institution. If anyone has resources to share or has previous experience in the civilian sector, I would love to discuss.

Military Choosing Degrees

Does anyone have experience working specifically with military, Active Duty or Veterans? I just left a job where I worked with military admissions base and am learning to work at my new position with mostly civilians. Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated.

Should students take a gap year before college?

I love that this is mentioned on here! Personally, I didn't take off a year, but I do have HS students that argue for this when they come in with their parents. A year off seems like wasted time to me. The skills one needs to pass math/english/science classes gets more and more difficult to recall the longer you go without school.
