Whitney Merinar

Registrar

Whitney Merinar is a dedicated higher education professional with over 26 years of experience in the profession.  She began her career as an academic advisor in the for-profit industry and has worked her way into the registrar role.  She has been a registrar for almost 14 years, with a recent pivot from the private college industry into the public university sector. 

Merinar holds an Ed.S. in Higher Education Administration from The George Washington University and recently completed a data analytics certification to add to her repertoire. She is extremely passionate about her profession and advocates for registrars, as they are often unsung heroes.  Her favorite part of being a registrar is fine-tuning processes to make the office more efficient.

Merinar has been a "sideline" member of AACRAO for many years; however, she has recently decided to become active by joining several groups, answering list-serv questions, and starting to write about the profession. She plans to become even more active in AACRAO in the future.
