Enrollment Management (EM) is a multi-unit department within the Office of the Executive Vice Chancellor-Academic Affairs. The department is led by the Associate Vice Chancellor for Enrollment Management (AVC EM), who serves as the Chief Enrollment Officer and Chief Outreach Officer of the University. EM comprises multiple high-profile, core functional units including: the Office of Undergraduate Admissions, Office of the Registrar, Financial Aid & Scholarships Office, Cal-SOAP, Creative Services, Enrollment Analytics, and the Business Office. We work to advance the academic and public service missions of UC San Diego by ensuring equitable access to education and empowering students throughout their educational journeys.

The Office of Undergraduate Admissions leads the university's efforts to identify, recruit, admit and enroll the next generation of UC San Diego Tritons with particular focus on talented, academically capable, California students, representative of the diversity of the people of California. The mission of the office includes increasing the visibility of UC San Diego in California, the nation and world, through marketing and on- and off- campus recruitment activities to prospective first-year and transfer students and their families; school counselors; community college leaders and advisors; community based organizations; and educational organizations serving groups historicallyunderrepresented on our campus. The Office of Undergraduate Admissions hosts more than 80,000 visitors and receives, processes, and reviews over 150,000 applications for admission annually. The office works collaboratively with on-and off- campus partners to achieve university goals.

The Admissions Representative (AR), under the supervision of the Assistant Director of Undergraduate Admissions, plays a pivotal role in the admissions process for domestic and international applicants.

Responsibilities include reviewing applications, evaluating academic records, and determining admissions eligibility based on established guidelines. The AR engages in extensive on-campus recruitment activities including virtual offerings, develops recruitment plans related to these efforts, and utilizes a CRM system to connect with and track engagements with prospective students. They provide substantive information about UC San Diego's educational offerings and admission requirements through various platforms, including local and virtual school visits, workshops, and college fairs.

Additionally, the AR maintains relationships with counselors and community organizations to enhance enrollment efforts and assists with training sessions on admissions policies. An AR's evaluation duties involve assessing academic transcripts from domestic and foreign institutions, conducting course-by-course evaluations, and validating student records for admission purposes, consulting with more experienced level staff when needed.

The AR will assist with coordinating and support of special programs and events. The AR also participates in admissions committees, special projects, and training initiatives, contributing to the overall admissions operations and student recruitment goals at UC San Diego.
