Vice President for Enrollment Management
The College of Wooster announces the search for its next Vice President for Enrollment Management and invites nominations for and applications from exceptional candidates to lead enrollment efforts for one of America's most distinguished residential liberal arts colleges.
The College of Wooster is the nation's premier college for mentored undergraduate research and the most internationalized campus in Ohio. Wooster offers an extraordinary and comprehensive liberal arts education in a spirited residential setting, culminating in every student creating new knowledge through our Independent Study (I.S.), a rigorous, in-depth project of inquiry or creative expression. Currently, international students make up 14 percent of Wooster's total enrollment and hail from 76 countries. U.S. students of color account for 24 percent of the student body. Of those students from the United States, 30% of incoming Wooster students for the Class of 2027 were eligible for Pell grants. Backed by strong endowment performance (now valued at over $412 million), Wooster is proud to deliver average financial aid awards of over $50,000. Wooster boasts a thriving residential community, where students live on campus all four years.
The College employs 179 full-time faculty who serve as teachers, researchers, and mentors to our diverse student body. Faculty and administration operate in a shared governance environment, and the faculty-to-student ratio is 11 to 1. Wooster's faculty include world class educators whose research informs and enriches the student experience in the classroom, the lab, the field, and above all in the one-on-one mentoring of senior Independent Study. Faculty oversee more than 50 academic programs in the sciences, humanities, social sciences, and the arts, including new interdisciplinary Pathways. Wooster employs over 300 talented and dedicated staff to support the teaching mission of the College.
The City of Wooster, a vibrant Main Street community of roughly 30,000, is located approximately 50 miles from Cleveland, 90 miles from Columbus and 35 miles from Akron and boasts a strong, diversified economy, two major hospital systems, a downtown full of great restaurants and shops, and easy access to outdoor recreation opportunities. It's a short drive to Ohio State's Secrest Arboretum, the mountain biking trails at Vulture's Knob, and the 1,000-acre Mohican State Park. Wooster ranks in the Top 20 of 543 micropolitan areas in the U.S. by Policom-a measure of Economic Strength that looks at the long-term tendency for an area to consistently grow in both size and quality. Money Magazine ranked Wooster #37 out of 100 in its 2017 Best Places to Live.
The Vice President for Enrollment Management is a key leadership position within the institution, with central responsibility for attracting students to fulfill the College's mission as a liberal arts college, meet revenue goals, and present Wooster's high-quality programs and exceptional outcomes to prospective students, parents, the higher education community, and the public. The Vice President for Enrollment Management reports to the President and serves on the President's Cabinet. They will join a campus community that includes passionate and expert faculty, a dedicated and talented staff, and engaged students.
