Perez Ortiz, The commission is specific about the use of the term counselor. It is not allowed under the current regulations. Make sure your school does not use the term counselor for any personnel in admissions. Contact the CIE office for appropriate titles to avoid a violation of rule. Patty Aronoff

Regina, That is probably the most number one listed complaint in admissions. Some Students feel that they are rushed through a process because there is so much documentation involved. We need to always take the time to make sure that the student is comfortable, and also ask the questions to make sure that they understand what they are signing. Patty Aronoff

Enrollment Agreements

Shannon, These are your two most important documents in the admissions process. When the student signs the enrollment agreement, they are acknowledging that they have read and received a copy of the catalog. It is integral to the process that we provide them a copy of the catalog and they sign the acknowledgment as such. Patty Aronoff

Up-to-Date Information

Perez Ortiz, However we maintain our documentation, the important factor is that we have a process and means to obtain that information. Some schools prefer to have all information electronically where others prefer hardcopy. Many try a mix of both. Patty Aronoff
