The Office of Undergraduate Admission is asking for help from Tech women in recruiting future female Yellow Jackets.
Admission is accepting applications for its Women’s Recruitment Team (WRT), which plays an important role in the undergraduate recruitment process. Team members help prospective female students connect with women on campus who can share stories about their lives at Tech.
“I attended a couple of WRT events in high school, and it was the deciding factor for my enrollment at Georgia Tech,” said Mary Peters, a current WRT member. “WRT has so much power in raising the male to female ratio on campus.”
WRT members participate in three to four events for perspective students per semester, including tailgates, coffee nights, socials, talking with visitors in the admission office, and assisting with phone and email campaigns.
In addition to helping current students meet prospective students, it also gives current students opportunities to connect with one another.
“I love WRT because it has enabled me to get to know other awesome women on our campus and learn about their passions,” Peters said.
Interested students should contact Katie Mattli at katie.mattli@admission.gatech.edu for application information. Applications are due Friday, Sept. 5.
Learn more about WRT at the Admission website or on Facebook.
