On the Road Again

admissions counselors on the road

Dickinson admissions counselors offer an exclusive look at their travel experiences through social media.

Dickinson’s admissions team meets with prospective students around the world

by Lauren Davidson

For many, autumn brings with it thoughts of going back to school, festive foliage and pulling jackets out of storage. For anyone working in college admissions, fall is all about travel.

Admissions counselors are packing up and heading to their recruitment regions, and for Dickinson, that means an admissions counselor might travel from Illinois to India, California to China, our Cumberland Valley backyard to new markets in the South. They are manning tables at college fairs, sitting down with potential applicants at high schools and making the rounds at regional receptions. Check out where they’ve been and where they’re heading this season.

Our counselors also are offering an exclusive look at their travel experiences through social media on the “Meet Dickinson Admissions—In Your Neighborhood 2015” Storify collection, and you can follow each counselor’s #meetdsonadmit adventures on Twitter or Instagram:

So if you see one of our counselors in your neighborhood this fall, say hello! Pose for a selfie. Take a business card and a brochure, and utilize them as your resources. When you visit campus (there's still one Fall Open House left this year), they will remember you!
