“Outcomes of higher education are under increasing pressure and scrutiny, with students and families rightly expecting a clear return on their investment. At Virginia Wesleyan University, we have proactively addressed this by uniting our Division of Student Success with the David L. Kaufman Center for Enrollment. This intentional alignment creates a seamless, student-centered experience that supports individuals from their first point of contact through to graduation. By integrating enrollment, academic advising, career development, and student support services, we ensure that every Marlin is guided, challenged, and championed throughout their academic journey and beyond.”
