We use a three-ring binder, separated into sections (i.e. Catalog, Application for Admissions, Enrollment Agreement, Financial Aid Documents) as part of our admissions training process. Once reviewed, a signature form verifying completion is signed off on by the Admissions Represetative, Admissions Trainer, Director of Admissions, Assistant Director of Admissions and the Director of Financial Aid.
We are using a checklist of items, to complete an admissions file and making sure that all requirements are on compliance.
We too have pre-made files with a checklist that when completed gets turned into the Business office for review.
Damaris,
Sounds like you have a great check and balance. Thank you for posting.
Rene,
Do you have a check and balance procedure for your admissions paperwork?
Tasheika,
Is there a process to double check the work?

How does your school handle the signature portion?
Elliot,
Excellent! Thank you for posting your process.
I am still in training for Admissions and am finding these suggestion for organizing and reasons on why and how it can help to be a great tool.
Yes I do
the admission package has all infrmation that is requirement.
At my school we have a file checklist and file folders that are prepared for each program to insure all the proper paperwork is filled out and signed. We then submit all files to an admissions coordinator who double checks the file before an enrollment is entered.
Steve,
Thanks for posting your process. Excellent approach.
Clara,
Does anyone double check to make sure the checklist is complete and accurate?
Jenny,
What is your process beyond the checklist?
Lucia,
That is good to hear. The purpose of the forum is to assist others and promote ideas.
I have just started the course and I am just beginning to organize the paper work.
I am organizing the training, industry, and institutional information in separate sections of a resource binder.
I am a big checklist maker! We use a checklist for our admissions information now. I keep notebooks specific to areas of information. I have found the one key is to make sure everyone that needs to know the information knows where the notebooks are kept!
my instution is very up to date on all the specifics that need to be addessed, one must keep up with all of the lastest changes! it will only help the entire cicle of success:student, first of course!
