About Campus

Campus is on a mission to accelerate the talent of tomorrow and reimagine what college can (and should) be. The problem is clear: college costs have skyrocketed, but outcomes haven’t. Traditional college hasn’t kept up with the aspirations of today’s students—and they can’t afford to wait.

At Campus, we’ve built a two-year, accredited college where students learn from top professors at universities like Princeton, Stanford, and Howard, in live, online classes. Our students graduate with in-demand business and AI skills—ready to launch their careers or transfer to top four-year universities. Our unique approach is grounded in a pioneering technology platform and a heavily-researched student success model that offers students dedicated advisors and on-demand tutoring and coaching. We were also named one of Fast Company's Most Innovative Companies of 2024.

We’re backed by an exceptional investor team that believes deeply in our vision for the future of education, including General Catalyst, Founders Fund, Bloomberg Beta, 8VC, Rethink Education, Sam Altman, Jason Citron, Shaquille O’Neal, and others.

The world has changed. Higher ed needs to catch up, and we’re leading the way - come join us!



About the Team

At Campus, Admissions is where the journey begins. We’re the first real conversation many students have about their future, and we don’t take that lightly. Our team plays a vital role in helping students explore whether Campus is the right fit - academically, professionally, and personally.

Admissions Counselors are trusted guides. We build real relationships, offer honest encouragement, and provide the structure students need to make confident, informed choices. Every conversation is rooted in care and clarity - because big decisions deserve both.



About the Role

As an Admissions Counselor, you’ll connect with prospective students daily - by phone, text, and email- to build trust, discover their goals, and guide them through the admissions process. You’ll help them understand what to expect, assess whether Campus is the right fit, and support them in taking the next step. You’ll need to listen with empathy, communicate with clarity, and follow up with persistence.

This is a performance-driven role grounded in connection. Many students come to these conversations feeling uncertain or overwhelmed, and your job is to meet them where they are, motivating them to move forward - if Campus is a good fit for their ambitions. If you love helping people and thrive in a fast-paced, goal-oriented environment, this role is for you.



You’re excited about this opportunity because you will…

  • Build trust and rapport with prospective students through high-energy, student-centered conversations
  • Identify and troubleshoot common student challenges, whether it’s confusion about the process, readiness for college, or emotional stress
  • Conduct admissions interviews that uncover each student’s goals, motivations, and potential barriers
  • Guide and follow-up consistently with students through the application and enrollment process, including assistance in completing their application, steps for enrollments, and clear understanding of the Campus program, schedule, and expectations.
  • Use sound judgment to help students navigate ambiguity, objections, or frustration with clarity and care
  • Manage a personal pipeline, making 80+ calls daily, conducting interviews, and following up consistently via structured phone, text, and email
  • Manage your daily tasks, follow-ups, and notes with precision using Salesforce and structured outreach tools
  • Maintain clean, accurate documentation that supports seamless handoffs between Admissions, Financial Aid, and Onboarding
  • Thrive in ambiguity, pivot often, and stay motivated and persistent despite repeated rejection or student drop-off

We’re excited about you because you…

  • Are warm, confident, and engaging on the phone; you know how to connect with people quickly
  • Know how to listen closely, ask strong follow-up questions, and tailor your approach to meet people where they are
  • Are resilient. You bounce back from rejection and keep showing up with energy
  • Stay organized and structured even amid high outreach volume and shifting priorities—you manage your pipeline like a pro
  • Are coachable, can apply feedback fast, and always want to get better
  • Understand that this is a performance role; you're motivated by hitting goals and making a difference
  • Can thrive in a fast-paced, constantly evolving environment

Required:

  • Clear, confident phone communication and strong written follow-up
  • Comfort with metrics and performance targets
  • Familiarity with tools like Salesforce, Google Sheets, or other CRMs (or eagerness to learn)
  • Proven ability to manage a high volume of outreach and follow-up

Nice to Have:

  • Experience in admissions, recruitment, sales, or another student/customer-facing role
  • Bachelor's degree preferred, but not required - we value hustle, heart, and clarity over credentials

What you'll get:

  • A compensation package that includes a base salary ($47,000 - $56,000) + equity grant
  • Actual compensation within the pay range will be decided based on factors including, but not limited to, skills, prior relevant experience, and specific work location. For roles that are available to be filled remotely, base salary will be localized.
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401(k) match
  • Fertility benefits via Carrot
  • Hybrid work schedule (Mon & Fri remote; Tues-Thurs in-office)
  • Flexible Time Away + paid holidays
  • In-office lunches for our Atlanta office
  • Social events - happy hours, birthday celebrations, holiday parties, & more!
  • Opportunity to make an impact – you’ll be an integral player in bringing our vision to life
