Student Admissions Interviewing Old process New process
Opportunities associated with interviewing prospective students • Check students own perception of their academic ability and transferable skills • Check students aspirations to measure the link between what we offer and what they want • Opportunity students to become familiar with the surroundings and atmosphere at the UoB • Opportunity for students to meet their peer group through tour carried out by Student Ambassadors • Opportunity for students to meet their tutors
GOOD PRACTICE • Reputable Programme • Friendly and welcoming atmosphere/staff • Built the programme – uniquely different than majority. Check other programmes for content and mode of delivery. Programme that builds careers • Strong team – lecturing (available to engage before programme start) and support staff (technicians) – work together – support each others strengths • Taster – student gets to experience small part of programme • Good facilities • Word of mouth from successful students • Group interview (different numbers depending on programme, eg if need to show portfolio 5 at max, if group work then 20 might work • Make interview fun and engaging - 5 years after graduate, what would I see if I google you? • Video equipment in motion and opportunity to talk to students • Ambassadors representative of all programme
Engagement with student keeping them warm and enhancing their experience
