Traditionally, marketing and admissions teams have functioned as independent units at colleges and universities. However, institutions like Siena College are changing the tide by creating a more collaborative environment in which these teams work together to achieve the common goal of increasing enrollment.
In this episode, you will hear Katie and Allison answer questions like:
- What ideas do you have for how marketing and admissions should function as more collaborative units within a college or university over the next several years?
- Should higher ed communications function independently and handle all PR and internal communication responsibilities so marketing and admissions teams can evolve to work together as a singular unit?
- How responsible should marketing teams be for enrollment?
Tune in as Zach, Katie and Allison explore how the relationship between marketing and admissions at Siena College has evolved over the last twenty years, and the future of this collaboration across higher ed in years to come.
