  • Events + student activities: Coordinate logistics for events (in-person and virtual), including reservations/Zoom setup, RSVPs, catering, A/V, parking codes, setup, and attendance tracking.
  • Tracking + lists: Maintain accurate trackers and distribution lists (inquiries, RSVPs/attendance, committee rosters, registration checks, code distribution logs) and flag issues to the Program Manager/Director.
  • Committee/admissions process support: Support committee coordination needs (scheduling, compiling materials, tracking deadlines) and assist with process-related admissions workflow tasks as assigned (non-decision-making).
  • Administrative coordination: Support purchasing and program needs (supplies, swag, codes), maintain documentation/records, and assist with Concur travel logistics as assigned.
  • Website/social execution support: Post routine updates to program channels (calendar/announcements/social posts) using approved content and basic formatting/brand polish.
