A College Admissions Reader is responsible for evaluating and assessing applications submitted by prospective students.

During peak application cycles, readers may be expected to meet specific daily or weekly quotas and adhere to strict deadlines. The role may be remote, seasonal, or part-time depending on the institution, offering flexibility but also requiring strong self-motivation and organizational skills.
