Kathy Ruiter
Admissions Representative / Coordinator of Transfer Recruitment

Kathy began working at Blackburn as an Administrative Assistant in 1988 and moved into her current role in 2001. She earned a B.S. from Blackburn in 2000 and went on to obtain a M.B.A. in 2003 from Baker College in Flint, MI. Kathy loves the fact that Blackburn offers students a work – learning environment through the Work Program that prepares students for life’s challenges after college. She receives a sense of accomplishment by helping students and parents understand Blackburn’s mission. Kathy enjoys getting to know students and parents and sharing with them the opportunities at Blackburn, the advantages of a Blackburn education and making them feel comfortable during the admission and enrollment process. When asked what advice he gives to students searching for the right college Kathy stated, “Higher education today is like going to a shopping mall, there are so many choices and if you look hard enough you will find something that fits. I recommend researching a variety of colleges and universities. Narrow your choices and visit those campuses. Ask questions when you visit that are important to you. Choose your college by how comfortable you feel with the academic program, social atmosphere and the overall environment. Choosing a college on name recognition alone may not meet your expectations once you get there.” Contact Information: (800) 233-3550, ext. 4222 Email
