The Sacred Heart University Graduate Admissions program was well decorated at the 22nd Annual Admissions Advertising Awards, sponsored by Admissions Marketing Report. The program won four awards, three of them gold, in the annual competition, the oldest of its kind in the U.S.
The four awards that Graduate Admissions won are for “Newspaper Ad/Single” (gold), “Magazine Ad/Single” (gold), “Transit/Billboard” (gold) and “Newspaper Ad/Insert” (silver). All the ads were part of the marketing campaign for the newly AACSB-accredited John F. Welch College of Business, and were designed with the St. Vincent, Milone & O’Sullivan advertising agency of New York City.
“We are thrilled to receive such recognition for this campaign,” said Meredith Woerz, director of Graduate Admissions. “Jack Welch’s dedication to our students and faculty has brought such excitement to our community and we couldn’t be more proud. The innovative nature of the John F. Welch College of Business is an aspect that causes this business school to stand out from the rest, and we are pleased these award-winning advertisements are helping to spread the message.”
The awards are organized by the Admissions Marketing Report, a leading marketing publication for higher education. This year over 22,000 entries were received from over 
1,200 colleges and universities from all 50 states.
In addition to Graduate Admissions’ awards, the University also won a merit award for its annual report, designed by Keating Associates of South Natick, Mass.
