Deanna ‘Dee’ Voss
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. –– Brad A. Williams, Ed.D., vice president for student affairs and dean of the College of Undergraduate Studies at Nova Southeastern University (NSU) announced the appointment of Deanna ‘Dee’ Voss as dean of undergraduate admissions. She will report to Dr. Williams.
Voss comes to NSU from the University of Miami (UM) where she was an enrollment professional for more than 20 years. She held executive level positions at UM, most recently serving as associate dean of enrollment management and executive director of admissions. In this role, Voss led UM to three record years in a row of increasing undergraduate applications while raising the academic quality and profile of the incoming class each year. The increased academic profile contributed to significant improvements in first-year retention and overall four and six year graduation rates.
Professionally, Voss is active in both the National Association for College Admission Counseling (NACAC) and the Southern Association of College Admissions Counselors (SACAC). She is also a past president of SACAC. “Ms. Voss brings a wealth of knowledge about admission and enrollment management and relationships with high school counselors throughout Florida, nationally and internationally; we are thrilled to have her on our team,” said Williams.
Voss has a bachelor’s degree in international studies from Baldwin-Wallace College in Ohio and a master’s degree in higher education leadership from the University of Miami.
