The reward outweighs the pay here. The pay is decent but the reward of helping someone accomplish a milestone in life is well worth the hustle. Workplace culture is what you make of it . The hardest part of the job is maintaining a steady schedule of applicants. The easy part is guiding a prospect through the process. So much more to private education than people think
Pros
The gratitude you get from graduates
Cons
The complaints along the way
I assisted potential students in enrolling into the University. I loved being a cheerleader for my student's and helping them achieve their dreams of a college degree. I would help them through the enrollment and financial aid process and would follow through with them through their first several classes. Providing support and encouragement. I also helped facilitate and deliver New Student Orientations for new Campus students. Familiarizing them their student website and where to find additional support. Our work place culture was great we acted like one big family and we were all devastated when our campus location was closed due to cuts from the University. The hardest part was not being there for our current students when we were laid off.
Pros
Team Building seminars and community service
Cons
Constant surveillance of our work day
Enrolling military students and advising them of their benefits and how to use them, customer service work. Showing student how to apply for financial aid as well.
I worked for the University of Phoenix on a temporary basis. I enjoyed the educational environment and being able to help/interact with the students in the resource center.
Pros
