Responsibilities
Our Admissions Volunteer Coordinators (AVCs) are the main point of contact between the Admission Office and the club area, and are key members of helping the admissions office provide prospective students with information about Notre Dame. We encourage our AVCs to form relationships with the regional admissions team for your area and the associate director, alumni and parent relations, as well as be active members of their Notre Dame Club.
AVCs are encouraged to share their Notre Dame experience with prospective students, and we ask that you stay current on academics, community, and student life. This information is provided through training documents, monthly communications, and by following the ND Admissions social media platforms.
The training materials and monthly communications will assist you with keeping up-to-date on today's Notre Dame. Information will also be shared through an annual broadcast and training materials.
While the number of activities will vary based on your club size, we hope that every club will at a minimum contact their admitted students via email and/or phone.
