Representatives from NDSU’s Office of Admission and Office of Registration and Records recently presented at the 98th annual meeting of the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers in Philadelphia. This year’s meeting focused on the theme, “Investing in the Future of Higher Education.”
Kristi Wold-McCormick, NDSU registrar, co-presented “Joint Degrees and Programs: Opportunities and Challenges” with the University of North Dakota registrar Suzanne Anderson. The session explored joint programs and degrees, including increased access for students and challenges with academic record keeping, registration, enrollment reporting, institutional policy and information system capabilities.
Merideth Sherlin, associate director of admission, and Rhonda Kitch, associate registrar, co-presented “Cross-Training Enrollment Management Staff.” The session demonstrated how the inService program in Enrollment Management was created and implemented. inService is a collaborative effort to educate and update staff via face-to-face sessions, regularly scheduled newsletters and online resources. The goal of inService is to provide the best possible customer service for students and foster relationships in the Enrollment Management Unit.
Kitch also facilitated a roundtable discussion on commencement.
NDSU is recognized as one of the nation's top 108 public and private universities by the Carnegie Commission on Higher Education.
