Meet the Staff

Welcome to the SU Office of Admissions.

When you inquire and/or apply to Shenandoah you will be assigned to an admissions counselor in your academic program of interest. Your SU counselor will assist you in arranging a campus visit, answer any questions you have, and help you navigate the admission and enrollment process.

We ask you to consider: "It's not about where you get in, but about where you fit in." I hope you will let the Admissions staff help you determine if Shenandoah is the right fit for you.

I look forward to meeting you when you visit our campus.
