Robert Morris University has hired a former Chatham University administrator as its new vice president for enrollment and financial aid.

Wendy Beckemeyer will begin work at the Moon-based university July 1, acting as RMU's chief enrollment officer and overseeing the admissions and financial aid offices, the university announced today.

Beckemeyer will report directly to university president Gregory Dell’Omo.

Since 2010, Beckemeyer served as vice president of enrollment at Chatham University. She has a bachelor’s degree in communications and marketing from California Lutheran University and resides in O’Hara Township

“Wendy has exactly the combination of expertise and experience that Robert Morris seeks as we grow our residential campus while reaching out to more graduate and nontraditional students,” said Dell’Omo in a statement.

RMU, located off University in Moon, enrolls 5,000 undergraduate and graduate students.
