Octavia,
Social networking is certainly a useful tool. Always be sure what is on the Internet you want everyone to see. Has your school created a Facebook page?
I really like the concept of girls night out. It helps the students to be more involved and utilize social media to display their work. In the end, each student should create a portfolio and keep record of any customers that they work on. It's all about networking.
Carl,
That is great! I would also suggest you meet with the program chairs or instructors to get a feel for the classroom experience. They will often invite you to sit in a class.
Marketing experiences can also be used as a way to present activities to Prospective students that the school participates in and take current students along with to represent the school and the program.I work at a Cosmetology school We currently do Girls Night Out, Pageants,Fashion shows, and Day of Beauty using our current students and then take lots of pictures which you can use on Facebook and in photo albums. Prospective students love the idea of being involved in such a community involved school.
Our Marketing team meets with our admissions team on a monthly basis.
Cristina,
