Admissions is often blamed by faculty for admitting students that have an unreal expectation of their program, or students that are not qualified to succeed in their programs. One possible answer to this question is to have meetings where faculty trains admission reps about what the courses are actually about, and what skill sets the students must have in order to succeed. Likewise, the admissions reps should train faculty about the details of the admissions process, the tests that the new prospective students must pass to get into the classes and any other tools used to choose the students that are enrolled in each class. Only when each group understands each others methods can they make meaningful suggestions for improvement.
