We as Admissions Reps always need to be upfront and honest with potential students.There are laws and regulations regarding advertising higher education. Some of the requirements include not over selling the income potential. However, you can say view the bureau of labor statistics.

The section on Compliance was very helpful. It was valuable to understand that once a month, i should review the Ohio Regulatory Website for updates

why is accreditation is voluntary?

I am a brand new Admissions Representative and was curious if anyone who is more seasoned has had measurable success in recruiting using social media. What specifically has worked for you?

Always make sure that you know if there have been any changes that have been made at the state level to be complaint with state code.

How often does a school changes their programs and cirrulium?

Why are policies and procedures so different from all for profit schools?

What are best known practices for staying current on all laws, rules and regulations?

Why is it that transfer credits can not be accepted by all schools?

As an Admission Rep you are here to help people in achieving their goals!

As an Admission Rep we must make sure Disclose all the information and documents that portent to the student, which could affect their financial future.

I feel that we must be understand the needs of our students and direct them into right career field of study that will open new doors for our students, that without a degree wouldn’t not be able to find a career that them and their family could be proud of. These are people’s lives we are dealing with and if we are misleading students down the wrong path it looks really bad on us as admission Representative for not using qualifying questions to get the information to determine if the program or school is right for the student. How do you feel about this Statement?

One thing I didn't see discussed is the diploma mills and GED's for high schools also. If we don't recognize a local high school for their diploma or GED chances are it was obtained on line, especially if it is from an out of town school.

As an admissions rep, I have a strong background in corporate recruiting before I entered higher education. I know how important it is to fully explain to potential students about felonies and back ground checks and how they may hurt their outlook in their choosen field.

As an admissions rep, I do see the need to add ESL to our campus. We have seen a need from potential students in this area and questions regarding ESL. Unfortunately we do not have ESL as of right now.

What is the best way to handle the objection. "I don't know what I want to do as my career, I ahve thought about it an nothing stands out"?

I work for an organization which provides nursing education and other healthcare related programs. Does anyone know what the recommendations or best practices are regarding background checks for those looking to enter nursing, in regards to how far the inquiry should go (i.e. 7 years, 10 years, indefinitely)?

In order for a prospect to make an informed decision, they should have been provided with every aspect of the enrollment process, being an active student and what to expect upon graduation.

Being in this business for close to 10 years now, I have seen an enormous surge in students attempting to enroll in school that have student loans in default. Let alone, having attended several schools and not complete their program of study. More needs to be done in advance to prevent students from getting in default. It would benefit them to have more knowledge about the options they have in managing their student loans.

It is so unfortunate how many people are out there thinking and feeling they have made a great decision to get their HS Diploma. Yet there are so many diploma mills out there now of days, especially with the ongoing advancements of technology, that are taking advantage of so many people trying to get a step further in life.
