Selby named VP for Enrollment Management

“With Dr. Selby, Chadron State College has hired an accomplished enrollment management specialist,” Rhine said. “Dr. Selby has a strong background in developing enrollment plans, and her expertise with data will help us understand our students of the future and certainly assist CSC’s efforts to grow its enrollment, while staying true to our mission and the region we serve. I am excited to see what she brings to campus and help us successfully move forward.”

Selby, who grew up in South America and graduated high school in Port Huron, Michigan, is the Dean of Enrollment Management at the Community College of Denver, a public baccalaureate and associate’s college with an enrollment of 8,500. Both her master’s in public administration and her bachelor’s in business management are from East Stroudsburg University in Pennsylvania. Selby earned her Ph.D. in Leadership for Higher Education from Capella University.

“I’m really excited about this opportunity, as well as the decision Chadron State College’s leadership has made to prioritize this position and enrollment,” Selby said. “We are here to help the students succeed and CSC has that level of commitment and understanding. When I was on campus for my interview, I saw an engaged and vibrant campus and I’m thrilled to be an Eagle.”

Prior to working in Colorado, Selby spent 15 years at East Stroudsburg University in a variety of roles, including Director of Institutional Research and Process Management, Director of Enrollment Technology and Process Management, and as a Project Manager and Director in the Information Technology department. Selby also has experience as a consultant and worked in the corporate merchandise industry for nearly a decade.

Selby, who has professional certifications in enrollment management from Cappella University and Ruffalo Noel Levitz, said her vision for enrollment management at CSC will rely on collaboration.

“I see an opportunity to take all the great work that has been done, and is currently being done on campus, and synthesize it and define enrollment management as a living, breathing plan,” she said. “I am eager to listen and learn about all the wonderful things on campus and do everything I can to make sure students know CSC is the place for them. I can’t wait to get started.”

Selby, who will oversee Admissions, Financial Aid, and START, will begin July 1.
