Reporting to the Director of Admissions and Enrollment Management, the Admissions Assistant will be the friendly voice, proactive problem-solver organizer who sets priorities, develops a work schedule, and monitors progress towards goals, assessing situations to determine their importance, urgency and risks, generating possible solutions, making recommendations and/or resolving the problem in the best interest of the organization.
