This Week's Star Students... Yes, you heard that right! STUDENTS!

With it being the last week of regular tours in our office, we would like to recognize four of our first-time diplomats who have done fantastic work in our office this semester! It has been such a joy to watch these students grow in their confidence, teamwork, and leadership. Thank you Luke, Mitch, Lainey, and Megan, for always bringing so much energy and positivity onto your campus tours with you!

Jimena Guerrero: This Week's Star Student!


This week, the UNK Admissions Office Star Student of the Week is Jimena Guerrero! Jimena always has a positive attitude paired with a smile on her face and she is willing to help out with extra tours (i.e. a recent Saturday group visit)! Every conversation with prospective students and their families is genuine and sincere. Jimena is very assertive, confident, hard-working, and we are very lucky to have her as a member of our Admissions team! Thanks for all you do in our office, Jimena!
