About the Episode
Achieving institutional goals on NTR (net tuition revenue) is often a top priority for universities – especially at the most tuition-dependent institutions. The strategy for reaching those goals requires collaboration between Admissions and Marketing; however, at many universities, those relationships are fraught. And at some – they are nonexistent. In this episode Jaime talks with her colleague and friend Brent Shock, the VP for Enrollment Management and Student Success at Miami University, about their successful partnership.
Key takeaways from from this episode include:
- Understanding the symbiotic relationship between Admissions and Marketing and the risks that come when the two divisions don’t partner
- Advice for forging a collaboration that works
- Ideas for mending existing broken relationships and cultivating new ones
- A dive into how higher ed has ceded the argument around the value of higher education
- Tips on succession planning for both departments
