Megan Tyler ’14, who joined the Wofford admission team in 2015, has been named vice president for enrollment. She had been serving as interim vice president since July 1 and the retirement of Brand Stille ’86.
“Megan has played a key role in developing strategic recruitment initiatives, enhancing the college’s admissions processes and fostering a student-centered approach throughout her tenure,” says Dr. Nayef Samhat, 11th president of Wofford College. “She’s well respected in the field and has a clear understanding of Wofford’s values and enrollment goals. We are confident that she will continue the college’s momentum in enrollment.”
Tyler has earned increasing responsibilities within the admission and enrollment space, being named director of admission in 2020 and associate vice president of enrollment in 2024. Previously, in her work as senior associate director of admission, she directed the Wofford Scholars Program and served as the admission liaison to the First-Year Orientation team, the Bonner Scholars program and entrepreneurship and innovation programs through the Career Center.
Under her leadership, the college enrolled several of its most selective classes and increased applications by almost 10 percent. Recruitment efforts for the Class of 2030, the cohort that will arrive on campus in August as first-year students, are on record pace.
Tyler graduated from Wofford in 2014 with a Bachelor of Science degree in biology and a religion minor. She holds an M.Ed. in higher education administration from Columbia College.
