College Admissions Professional of the Month

College Representative of the Month Recipient

Congratulations to our August College Representative of the Month!
  
Ethan Knapp
University of Northern Colorado
  

From the Nominator(s): Ethan is a very hardworking individual who shows a lot of passion for his job and the students he works for. Watching him at admissions events inspires me to be a better admissions counselor and treat every student with as much service and enthusiasm as I possibly can. He is a ray of sunshine at fairs and visits, and he has a smile for all colleagues and students that he talks to! 

Ethan has been the biggest to support to SO many counselors across various universities during his time at UNC. He’s the first one to introduce himself and take new counselors under his wing. He’s the first one to get a caravan going and the first one to plan a counselor outing after a night fair. From the student perspective, Ethan is a listening ear and kind face that students gravitate towards! His genuine enthusiasm is unmatched and something we all should strive to achieve! Without Ethan, life on the road wouldn’t be the same!
