Subject: Admissions Yield Efforts

Dear Colleagues,

Many of you have asked how you can support Admissions with spring yield efforts. Part of our recruitment strategy is to contact admitted students and encourage them to commit to NKU by completing any unfinished steps, and we are asking for your assistance in this work. This is also a great way to help admitted students build a network at NKU and get their questions answered.

Unfortunately, the ideal time to call students is between 5:30-7:30pm, Monday through Thursday. We understand you may have reservations about making the calls, so to support you, we will be offering in-person training at 5:00p each day. Once you sign up for training, you will be provided with further instructions on how to navigate in SLATE and secure a list of students to call along with the telephone script. All lists will be bundled with 5 students at time to allow you to control how many calls you make each evening. 

We truly appreciate your willingness to assist us in getting students closer to joining our NORSE family! Sign up here.

Thank you and Go NORSE!

Dr. Eddie Howard
