Along with the information provided from the module, I also keep up-to-date advisory board information readily available. This helps to provide accurate information for students on community relations.
I truly believe this is a brilliant idea and a great way to keep ourselves organized with all the material we need to keep current and handy, also I want to ask if is possible to share any updates with or team members in order to try to keep everybody on the same page, at least in the Admmissions Department, is this ok?

Veronica,
We need to explain every part of the student experience. All information needs to be shared. Doubts often arise from lack of information or understanding.

SHERRI,
The enrollment agreement and the catalog constitute the contract between the student and the school.

The resource notebook is a very important tool for an admissions department. The rules and regulations should always be available for review in case any questions or concerns should come up for the student as well as the school.I prepared a reference manual to help answer questions. It helps us stay knowledgeable of rules, directives and documents which we check regularly in case of changes.
We talk about the catalog and the requirements of admission. We explain the fees and tuition.
We also clarify to them all the doubts.

Norma Suzanne,
Often the term accreditation is confused with the term licensure. It is important that any accrediting body is recognized by the USDOE as there are many bogus accrediting bodies that look "real."
Patty Aronoff
Norma Suzanne,
Each type of funding needs to be fully explained and to include the discussion of repayment. Default management is an important operational function of a school.

Norma Suzanne,
The catalog, along with the enrollment agreement constitute the contract between the student and the school.

Also, because they don't know, students seem to ask: Is your accredited? instead of which accreditation does your school have? Since there are many accrediting bodies available. It makes a difference depending in the school they are enrolling in.
I believe Title IV funding really needs to be explained to students because the majority of them do not understand fully what this means. Title IV funding includes: grants, loans and scholarships. Each needs to be explained to them in detail.
