General Notes Texas Admissions, Longhorn Orientation, First-Year Experience, and Enrollment Strategy and Partnerships work together steward the student journey as a single continuum, from prospect development and recruitment through application and admission, transition and orientation, and forward to integration, belonging, and persistence. Within this shared stewardship model, Enrollment Strategy and Partnerships leads prospect-pool development, expands access through admissions pathways, and builds the institutional and community relationships that open and strengthen the front end of the student journey.

The Senior Program Coordinator provides the day-to-day coordination, analysis, communication, and project management needed to translate that strategy into effective programs and student experiences.

Purpose Coordinate strategic initiatives that expand prospective-student pipelines and strengthen participation in admissions pathway programs. Support the Director of Enrollment Strategy and Partnerships through program administration, CRM and data management, partner engagement, student communication, outreach, assessment, and cross-functional coordination. Help prospective students and families understand pathway opportunities and move successfully from initial interest through application, pathway participation, and enrollment.

• Coordinate the day-to-day administration and continuous improvement of admissions pathway programs. Maintain program calendars, requirements, milestones, procedures, and participant records; coordinate communications and operational workflows; respond to student and family questions; track student progress; and support timely handoffs among Admissions, pathway partners, colleges and schools, orientation, and student-success units.
• Identify barriers to participation and recommend improvements that strengthen access, engagement, progression, and enrollment.
• Support prospect-pool and pipeline development, including name purchases, inquiry generation, lead acquisition, data imports, source tracking, audience segmentation, and campaign preparation.
• Coordinate with Recruitment, Enrollment Analytics, Marketing and Communications, and vendors to ensure prospect data are accurate, timely, appropriately coded, and available for outreach.
• Monitor movement from prospect to inquiry, applicant, pathway participant, admitted student, and enrollee, and identify opportunities to strengthen conversion.
• Support relationships with school districts, community colleges, community-based organizations, pathway institutions, and other educational partners.
• Coordinate meetings, agreements, presentations, information sessions, partner communications, and follow-up activities.
• Develop toolkits and resources that help partners explain University pathways and admissions processes accurately and connect prospective students with appropriate opportunities.
• Use the University’s customer relationship management system, reporting platforms, and other data sources to monitor pathway and pipeline activity. Produce recurring reports and dashboards; conduct quantitative and qualitative assessment; maintain data quality and documentation; and synthesize findings into recommendations for program design, communication, resource allocation, and student outreach.
• Plan and support pathway, partnership, and pipeline-development programs and events for prospective students, families, counselors, and partners. Coordinate…
