3. -Now- Profile DeVry University uses its regional sales force and admissions office to recruit new students. Advertising in local media as well as open houses on campus bring perspective students to the onsite admissions office. Sales force staff routinely visit local high schools and present workshops to attract interest in the university. Maintaining a healthy lead flow of students, increasing applicants and starts at the university are essential for maintaining profitability. Current System At the campus, the admissions office responds to in-person visits, phone calls and other requests for information. Field sales representatives visits local high schools and performs at-home interviews. DeVry’s web site provides information and application forms. Current Day-to-day Educational Representatives routinely schedule on- campus workshops at area high schools. These workshops may be a skills assessment survey or other educational information for the students.
