Document Number: 9104Bringing Adults Back to College: Designing and Implementing a Statewide Concierge Model - A ready adult (or reentry) concierge is a single-point of contact at a college or university who helps returning adult students navigate the application, enrollment, and registration processes and overcome barriers to college success.
