| Initiative Title | Create Admissions Recruiter Position (Full-time or Part-time) |
|---|---|
| Submitted in Previous Year(s) | No |
| Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale | With the demand to increase enrollment, The Office of Admissions would like to request funding for a full-time or part-time admissions recruiter position. This person would recruit at local community events and would act as a community liaison between SUNY Orange, Admissions & the local community. Currently admissions has three professional staff members that recruit in multiple counties throughout the fall and spring semester. Having another staff member would allow us to be more strategic in terms of what type of student population we would like to increase (i.e. adult population). |
| Consequences of this initiative not being funded | As the institution and administration makes a push to increase our enrollment activity in Newburgh, this would be a great opportunity to have additional support to help increase our visibility in the community. Not having this position would not give us the opportunity to attend events that may attract new markets and student populations. |

|---|---|
|
Having this position would enable us to attend more community and recruitment events. In addition, we would be able to target market the adult population, which would support administrations vision to increase this student population. More focus can be given to the Newburgh Campus and the ability to serve the adult market. With areas such as West Point and Stewart Air Force base, we have an incredible opportunity to increase visibility and enhance our adult market in Newburgh. |
