Full Job Description

The Admissions Counselor plays a key role in supporting prospective undergraduate and graduate students as they explore and apply to the University. This position focuses on recruitment and outreach efforts, helping students navigate the admissions process and representing the University in a variety of settings. We're looking for someone who is approachable, motivated, and eager to grow in the field of admissions. A strong commitment to customer service, a positive attitude, and a genuine interest in student success are essential.

Strategically manage a recruitment territory by analyzing data to identify priority high schools, college fairs, and prospective students. Implement targeted outreach strategies tailored to each market, and work toward meeting defined recruitment goals. Build and maintain strong relationships with both internal and external stakeholders through on- and off-campus engagement.
Represent the University through extensive on- and off-campus outreach to prospective students, families, school counselors, community college advisors, and other key partners involved in the college search process.
Support the planning and execution of on- and off-campus recruitment events. Coordinate and actively contribute to student visit programs that attract and engage prospective applicants.
Provide individualized guidance to prospective students on the admissions process and opportunities at the University. Counseling takes place in a variety of settings—including on-campus meetings, high school and community college visits, college fairs, and graduate recruitment events—as well as through phone, email, and text communication.
Communicate information about the University’s programs, admissions criteria, financial aid, and student life clearly, accurately, and with enthusiasm. Assess individual student needs and tailor outreach to provide relevant and helpful guidance.
Guide prospective students through each stage of the admissions process. Review applications, process supporting materials, and make informed recommendations for admission and scholarships. Ensure accurate data entry and record-keeping within the University’s admissions system.
Perform other duties as assigned, which may include serving on the New Student Orientation committee and supporting targeted populations such as first-year, transfer, international, part-time, underrepresented undergraduate students, or graduate students in collaboration with faculty program directors.
