Admissions Crew
Every student at Warren Wilson College works.
What work crew will you choose?
As a member of the admissions crew, you showcase what it’s like to be a student at Warren Wilson to prospective students. You’ll host welcome tours, send postcards, and help facilitate admissions events that introduce our campus to students from around the world. Working closely with admissions counselors you will also help send out admissions packets, work on data entry, and answer phone calls.
Student Leadership Opportunities
Crew Leader: The crew leader of the admissions crew takes on a training and administrative role. This person helps prepare for crew meetings, teaches their peers how to lead tours and work in the office, and works to keep the crew motivated and on track.
Why Work Crews?
Part of your work experience is reflection, helping ensure that you achieve both your own educational goals as well as our Common Learning Outcomes. These distinguish our Work Program, giving it focus and relevancy that set it apart from a federal work-study or your average part-time job. Each crew in the Work Program identifies crew-specific goals as well. These outline skills and abilities your supervisor will teach you during the semester.
