The Office of Admissions at Cincinnati State Community College recruits from four main student groups: recent high school graduates, adult learners, students stopping out or re-entering college, and outreach programs for middle schoolers. Admissions representatives visit over 145 high schools annually and host numerous on-campus events to recruit students from local public, private, and parochial high schools. The office faces challenges in overcoming unfamiliarity with community colleges, concerns about transferability, and an aging campus facility.
