• Admissions Representative

  • May 2009 - Present

  Admissions representatives guide school applicants through the application and admissions process by helping them to assess their skills, education and career goals in order to choose the best college and education program. Their career typically starts with training programs to become familiarized with academic and financial aspects of their respective high school, college or university. Once training is completed, admissions representatives provide prospective students with general information on registration, program selection and academic requirements of their establishment. Admissions representatives may connect with prospective students by answering incoming phone calls, responding to Web inquires, attending college fairs and visiting high schools. Once they have identified a prospective applicant, they often begin with an introductory assessment, such as a phone or campus interview. During the interview, the representative evaluates the applicants qualifications, past experiences and objectives. Additionally, admission representatives may explain academic programs and answer any inquiries regarding applications, enrollment, courses and financial aid. They often record information into a database and follow-up with applicants to update statuses and answer any new questions. Some admission representatives may also give tours and lead general information sessions about their campus. Show less
