RuffaloCODY’s annual Enrollment Management Advisory Board meetings in Cedar Rapids during March attracted more than two dozen top admissions professionals from around the U.S. Conducted at the Center for Continuing Education on the Kirkwood Community College campus, advisory board participants engaged in roundtable discussions and brainstorming sessions on topics ranging from strategies for managing admissions streams and bolstering retention to specific RuffaloCODY EM products and services.

"It’s very rare for senior-level enrollment management professionals to have the luxury of a day together to discuss our work...it was one of the most enriching professional experiences I’ve had in some time," said Kim Myrick, vice president for Enrollment Management at the University of the Ozarks.

"Admissions and enrollment this year is unlike any other year...it’s very dynamic. It was really interesting to be with Enrollment Management representatives from institutions large and small and from all over the U.S., and to see that we’re all facing similar challenges and that we’re not alone in this process," said New England College Director of Admissions Diane Raymond. "I came away from the Advisory Board with five pages of notes and strategies -- and renewed confidence."
