Admission

The admission aspect of this program enlightened HHCI staff on the importance of developing a checklist to lessen their anxiety and the students anxiety. They said the checklist assisted them in ensuring all pertinent information and requirements are addressed.

Accreditation vs Licensing

At HHCI,we identified that many prospective students that comes thru the door, does not know the difference between accreditation, and licensure. many of them thinks that all schools are accredited not licensed.

Admissions Process

Our process is much similiar in that we use an Admissions Checklist for each applicant. We document everything from follow-up phone calls, emails, when we send out enrollment packets, etc. Even when the student is has been officially enrolled we keep a "Student Log" logging time and length of any student communication. Obviously documenting everything is important as a back-up paper trail.

Organizing the Paperwork

I like the idea of creating a student file before the interview with important points to discuss during the Career Planning Session.

Remote Admissions Advisor

I am a remote admissions advisor for an online school, and our system is now set up to meet all of the FL requirements with electronic files and document tracking. This makes it easier for me being remote, as paper files are no longer needed at the school. Everything is scanned and uploaded right into our system, keeping all student files organized and secure.

Admissions Material

I believe that it is a key factor that the all University maintains current with the changes and marketing of the University. This piece is essential because everyone represents the University and will at point or another serve as a recruiter.

Admissions on the Road

Should the admissions team work only internally to recruit students or; should they make a appointments to visit prospects whenever possible?

What is it now with a majority of students thinking they should get "paid" to go to school?

Obtaining Accredidation

So many students have no idea about what Fin Aid and being accredited really mean. We are obligated to educate. Education is the field we are in.

Exit Interviews

This is the moment to excite and inspire our almost graduating students. This could be the moment that makes them or breaks them. Many of of these students are nervous about what will come next. Our words will help them in their road to success.

Rules to follow

It is so important to follow the rules set by the CIE. Everything is as follow.
