Recruit Students
Recruit Students functionality is restricted to Recruiters only.
When exploring transfer options within Transferology, the student has the option to Request Information about a particular school or program. Any student request, regardless of information requested, is copied or routed to the Recruiter.
In the Transferology Lab, from the Advising & Recruiting tab, click the Recruit Students function:

The Recruit Students page provides student information to recruiters. The majority of this page is table-formatted student information (two tabs: Active Leads and Archived Leads). Recruiters may filter this student information, as well as export information to a Microsoft Excel file:
Student information is contained within two tabs on the Recruit Students page:
- Active Leads
- Archived Leads
The Recruiter may toggle between tabs to track where a student is in the recruiting process.
