NOVA Corps, a paid student internship program through the vice president of enrollment management and student success (VPEMSS) is recruiting current students to help prospective, new, and current students start and finish strong at NOVA. The mission of NOVA Corps is to develop NOVA students’ professional job skills while also providing peer-to-peer support.

Student interns will perform a variety of customer-service duties in support of educational programs, including providing general information to students on a variety of programs, activities and procedures related to admissions, enrollment, college programs and activities. They will work primarily in person (face to face), as well as through telephone, email and/or online chat. They will be trained to provide information on NOVA’s application for admission, registration and general financial aid processes, assistance in navigating the student information system (SIS) and Canvas. They will also assist with campus tours, virtual lobby, new student orientation, etc.

Interns should be able to provide courteous, friendly and knowledgeable service to other students. They will be trained to provide clear, consistent, up-to-date and accurate information. They will attend team meetings, read emails and the College website and utilize current job aids.
