The Data and Communications Subcommittee advises the leadership of the SUNY Office of Transfer and Articulation (OTA) and the Transfer Advisory Council (TAC) on strategies to enhance SUNY transfer initiatives through the management of data, communication, and online resources. The subcommittee plays a critical role in leveraging data to inform marketing, internal and external communication, recruitment, and process improvement strategies.
Comprised of leaders from institutional research, enrollment management, student records, technology, and campus and SUNY marketing and communication teams, the subcommittee collaborates to develop innovative approaches for information sharing and communication related to student data. The subcommittee also advises on emerging needs, data accessibility, and the effective use of transfer-related tools, contributing to the ongoing improvement of the transfer experience across SUNY campuses. It also supports strategies to enhance recruitment, transition, and onboarding processes for transfer students, ensuring an improved experience before, during, and after their transfer to SUNY.
