Complimentary Webinar: Goodbye Admissions Interview - Hello P.E.A.

How could it be? The admissions interview has long been a standard recruitment tactic for schools and colleges in securing enrollments. Join this complimentary webinar from your friends at Norton Norris to learn why schools are moving away from this worn (and controversial) method and enjoying the results that come from focusing on student fit. The P.E.A. (pre-enrollment advising) technique will be broken down in detail along with the results you can expect to see when adopting the process for your own school! LEARN MORE

MyGuidance Coach® (MGC)

Automated Pre-Enrollment Coaching Continues to Deliver!

Today’s prospective students are doing a majority of research on their own before stepping foot in a school or reaching out to an admission representative. At the same time, admission professionals struggle to connect with inquiries for conversion to enrollments.

MyGuidance Coach® (MGC) provides automated, proven, and legally endorsed pre-enrollment counseling 24/7 to engage prospective students and guide them through the buying cycle where they are ready to say, “Yes! This school is the right fit for me!”. Not only will they learn more about themselves through our patent-pending coaching process, they’ll receive information on your school completely customized to their needs. Compliance departments will love the fact that review of school information is also recorded as solid evidence of full disclosure! 

The best part: It’s completely FREE for your prospective students and they can “raise their hand” to connect with your admissions team when they’re ready!

Welcome to the Norton Norris Team:

Our team keeps growing to serve you even better! In fact, we just doubled our office space in beautiful downtown Chicago and welcome the following new team members:

Lindsay Barnett, Client Manager, Marketing

Lindsay attended the University of Kansas and graduated with a degree in journalism and international studies. She works on the marketing team and comes to us with over nine years of experience in the education sector at the agency level and, most recently, the client side. When she’s not busy serving her clients, she enjoys spending time with family, traveling and, of course, Kansas basketball.

Fara Piñero Singh, Senior Facilitator, Training and Development

Fara attended college in California where she currently resides. She has over 15 years working in higher education, serving in various roles within admissions. She is passionate about changing lives and enjoys sharing her knowledge and experiences with other professionals. Fara is dedicated to excellence in training facilitation and is always searching for new and meaningful ways to empower other admission professionals. When she’s not traveling around the U.S. and Puerto Rico conducting training workshops, she enjoys spending time with her family and friends.

Beth Knaster, Project Coordinator, Enrollment Solutions Division

Beth is a new member of our Chicago office who moved to the city from Baltimore, Maryland. She joins our Enrollment Solutions team as a project coordinator, bringing five years of project management experience. She has also developed a love for training and development while spending seven years working with companies large and small in that arena. During her time away from the office, she practices yoga, escorts her sporty son all over Chicagoland for team events, and enjoys reading.

Keisha Jones, Accounting Assistant, Finance

Keisha holds a degree in computerized business systems and accounting. She joined our Finance team three months ago with 10 years of experience in Accounts Payable and Receivable in the construction, property management, and customer service industries. In her spare time, she enjoys building memories with her wonderful daughter and son, taking long walks with her new dog, and reading.

 

Not only does our team keep growing to serve our clients better, so is our space!  We’ve been busy packing years of education marketing and training materials and moving to our newly added space, here in the heart of Chicago.
