Undergraduate Admissions Wins National Award

LEXINGTON, Ky. (March 21, 2012) – The same UK staff members who tout the university's success to prospective students across the country are being honored for an accomplishment of their own.

The Higher Education Marketing Report has awarded the UK Office of Undergraduate Admission two of its 27th annual Educational Advertising Awards.

UK received a Gold award in the video view book category for its work with Cornett-IMS on this year’s UK "see blue." recruitment video. 

"We are so pleased to have our recruitment materials recognized – the feedback we hear from prospective students, counselors and family members has been overwhelmingly positive, and this award reinforces our commitment to excellence," said Don Witt, vice provost of enrollment management at UK. 
  

The Higher Education Marketing Report also recognized UK and Cornett-IMS with a silver award for their UK "see blue." recruitment package in the total recruitment category.

"It is very important to have cutting edge recruitment materials that are combined with social media and event efforts," Witt said.  "All of our efforts are moving UK forward to attract some of the best and brightest across the Commonwealth, the nation and beyond!"
