Pallie is a member of the College Board Access and Diversity Collaborative’s advisory committee, the strategic refresh advisory committee of the Los Angeles Scholars Investment Fund, and the ad hoc committee on serving next-generation college counseling and admission professionals for the National Association for College Admission Counseling.
Before being named director of recruitment at Pomona, Pallie was the College’s associate dean of admissions; prior to that, she spent six years in admissions at Scripps College, where she received her Bachelor of Arts degree. Pallie then earned an MBA from the Peter F. Drucker and Masatoshi Ito Graduate School of Management in Claremont.
Jarrid Whitney, assistant vice president for student affairs, enrollment and career services, said:
Ashley is highly regarded on the national stage, especially for her DEI admissions work. She understands the nuances of recruiting and evaluating candidates from a wide range of backgrounds and experiences. Ashley is a proven collaborator who has a track record of working closely with faculty and administrators to further the mission of the offices she has represented.
“I am thrilled to join the Caltech community and specifically the Office of Undergraduate Admissions,” Pallie says. “Having long admired the intellectual and collaborative environment of Caltech, I look forward to building on the great successes of the admissions team in bringing the best and brightest students from around the world to this intimate and innovative community.”
Pallie will join Caltech on September 13.
