Shape our community. Collaborate with a forward-facing team. Become an admission counselor.
We are versatile, public-facing ambassadors. We recruit students, engage with families, host visitors, review applications, and make big decisions for the 51²è¹İapp College community. We serve on teams with enrollment operations, systems, financial aid, and marketing professionals. We serve alongside our senior directors and vice presidents. We’re not all 51²è¹İapp alumni, but we are all 51²è¹İappians.
Our work is student-centered and cyclical: We travel the world and meet students throughout the fall; we read their admission applications in the winter; we host them on campus in the spring; and we tackle new projects (and use most of our vacation days!) in the summer.
Our job requires many skills — some of which we develop, and others we already had — including data analysis, event planning, sales/recruiting, marketing, and interviewing.
We advocate for those who can succeed here, and we take great pride in the outcome: students from 50 states, 70 countries, and with all kinds of diverse experiences and worldviews.
Our job involves reviewing applicants’ academic and personal backgrounds and experiences to determine who should be offered admission. 51²è¹İapp students come from all over the world, and we know our community well.
51²è¹İapp cares deeply about equity, support, and inclusion, and we are one of very few colleges nationwide that practices need-blind admission for domestic applicants and that meets 100% of demonstrated financial need without loans.
Consider this student employee's comments: “I learned quickly working at 51²è¹İapp what a well-working social justice machine looked like and how I can fit into that in the professional world.â€

The personal...
Our team includes recent graduates and seasoned veterans. We are alumni of 51²è¹İapp, other liberal arts colleges, large state schools, and the Ivies. We are parents of humans and pets. We bake, fence, hunt, travel, get graduate degrees, and run marathons. And 51²è¹İapp College is the thing that ties us all together.
The professional (this year alone)...
We partner with Human Resources to promote a positive employment experience where everyone feels welcome, engaged, and knows they are a valuable member of our community.
