For over a century, the university has served 3,000 traditional and non-traditional students from across the state, country, and world.

The YourPace Admissions team is a dynamic and innovative group providing proactive, student-centered support to adult graduate and undergraduate competency-based education prospects and applicants. This team works collaboratively to guide students through their educational journey in a flexible, remote-friendly environment.
This part-time Administrative Specialist (CL2) serves as the primary point of contact for the YourPace Admissions general inbox. You will manage direct communications with prospective students, connecting current applicants to their Admissions Specialist and directing current students to their Success Coach. The role also involves returning phone inquiries and routing calls to the broader admissions and enrollment staff as needed.
Working primarily remotely, this position requires the ability to manage multiple projects independently while collaborating closely with the entire YourPace Admissions team. As an essential position, you must be prepared to work remotely during inclement weather or campus emergencies. Occasional travel to the UMPI campus may be required for training and events.
Applications are reviewed on an ongoing basis, but for full consideration, materials must be received by June 1, 2026. Applications received after this date may be reviewed at the University's discretion.
