Institutional and Enrollment Marketing

A Connected Community Isn't Found — It's Built.

The Department of Institutional and Enrollment Marketing is responsible for leading college-wide strategic marketing efforts, with primary goals of increasing visibility and awareness, strengthening the York College brand, and recruiting students. 

We oversee all aspects of the College's brand identity and marketing efforts, including:

  • Branding and Visual Identity
  • Creative Services
  • Enrollment Marketing
  • Admissions Events
  • Social Media
  • Website Management

We believe in the power of storytelling, and using real-life examples from our campus community to show our audiences what makes York College such a special place.

Our team of marketing and creative professionals offers a full range of services to faculty and staff: institutional website management, graphic design projects, social media channels, videography, photography, enrollment marketing materials and direct communications, admissions event coordination, and more.
