Description

Many honors programs struggle with how to attract the best and brightest students, primarily because the students we seek often have multiple lucrative offers from highly rated institutions. At Miami University, we found ourselves in the unfortunate position of losing top-tier students to competitor programs in the region and state and thus needing to take action. Our first step was to take a critical look at the scope and type of communication we were having with prospective students. What we found was that although we offer an excellent honors program with learning opportunities that are equivalent to or perhaps better than those of our competitors, we were not doing an adequate job of communicating our strengths to prospective students. In our quest to attract top scholars to our institution, we determined that the answer to staying competitive would be drastic expansion of our marketing and communication efforts. The decision to increase the scope of our recruitment plan immediately presented a new challenge: resources. Any new recruitment initiatives would have to draw from the resources currently available to our program. With an inflexible budget, we had to look beyond the dollar signs. Ultimately, our sights landed on our greatest untapped resource: the students who are currently in our honors program. Involving a greater number of current students in the program would serve the dual purpose of affording us a large recruitment base to support our new efforts and providing students with opportunities to develop their cognitive, interpersonal, and intrapersonal capacities through a variety of experiences and interactions.
