The University of Utah Asia Campus (UAC) Office of Admissions recruits and enrolls undergraduate students from Korea and around the world in support of the campus goal of 1,200 enrolled students by 2030. Reporting to the Assistant Director of Admissions & Recruitment, the Coordinator, Visit Experience & Admissions Operations is responsible for the prospective student visit experience at UAC and for the operational and data functions that support the admissions team.
