Thank You
They are oftentimes the first smiling face seen by prospective students and parents visiting the University of Toledo. They warmly greet families each day and welcome them to campus. They ensure that each family is properly checked in for the daily admission presentations. They take tour groups all around showing off our beautiful campus, all while walking backwards for a majority of the trip. They are on the phones calling prospective students each night of the week to answer any questions, congratulate them on their acceptance to UT, encourage them to sign up for a UT Experience Day, remind them of important dates and programs, and to receive feedback on our service as an office. They provide assistance to us each day so that we can get accomplish our daily goals and ultimately our enrollment goals. They assist in the process of preparing files for application review. They assist with data entry and with mailings to prospective students. They arrive early and some stay late. Some work weekends while others can only work a few weekdays. Who are “they”? “They” are the outstanding student workers in the Office of Undergraduate Admission. I am so proud of the young men and women that work hard each day to make sure our prospective students are not just a number, but valued students that we want to be a part of the Rocket Family. They are oftentimes the highlight of a visit to campus and provide valuable information about their UT experience. It is this interaction that really helps to recruit students to UT. What better way to convey what UT has to offer than through the eyes and mouths of current students already living the experience!
So to any of our student workers that may be reading this, THANK YOU for all that you do and know that you are a big part of UT’s success!
