ADMISSIONS
Staff Participation in the Admissions Process
Description of activity
Staff members, usually residing in the Office of the Dean, are the most
likely individuals to serve as primary contacts throughout the
admissions process. The professionalism of these individuals is critical
in attracting quality applicants to the school or college. Colleges and
schools should include staff members in training sessions related to
promoting professionalism on campus.
Rationale
Staff members serve as ambassadors for the profession since they are the
most frequent contact for applicants to schools or colleges. They must
be knowledgeable about the admissions process and be familiar with
sources of referral within their specific school or college.
Areas of professionalism addressed
Respect and accountability serve as major components of professionalism
addressed by the interactions between staff members and prospective
applicants.
Special issues involving
planning/promotion/implementation
Schools and colleges must consider the investment of time and resources
to fully develop the talent and expertise of their staff members. Staff
should be encouraged or required to participate in training programs
designed to enhance effective interactions with prospective
applicants.
