The University of Nevada, Las Vegas invites applications for Regional Admissions Coordinator, UNLV Undergraduate Recruitment [R0153081]

ROLE of the POSITION

Reporting to the Assistant Director (AD) for Regional & College Recruitment in the Office of Admissions, the Regional Admissions Coordinator is responsible for recruiting and enrolling undergraduate, graduate, and transfer students from an assigned territory, guiding prospects through the admissions process from initial inquiry through matriculation. The Regional Admissions Coordinator also supervises Regional Counselors/Recruiters and provides leadership in the development, implementation, and evaluation of regional recruitment strategies.

The Regional Admissions Coordinator serves as a key liaison between the Offices of Admissions and Financial Aid, academic units, and other University partners, maintaining a high level of internal and external public contact. In collaboration with the AD for Regional & College Recruitment, the Regional Admissions Coordinator assists with the development and delivery of training for new Regional Counselors and College Recruitment Specialists and contributes to ongoing professional development initiatives throughout each recruitment cycle. The Regional Admissions Coordinator also develops, modifies, and coordinates communication plans for the regional recruitment team.

The Regional Admissions Coordinator is responsible for planning and managing recruitment activities within assigned regions, including extensive travel to high schools, community colleges, college fairs, and related events.
