for Higher Ed

—from enrollment to advancement.
Trusted by Schools, Loved by Students
Powering over 60 million student journeys in higher ed.
Higher education is facing a crisis of complexity and capacity.
Student Expectations
Students today expect more than lectures and credits—they want flexible, career-aligned, tech-enabled experiences. 80% of students want an educational experience that matches their digital lifestyle (KPMG).
Talent Shortage
A critical talent shortage exists driven by burnout, pay dissatisfaction, and demand for more flexible work environments. 33% of higher ed staff say they’re likely or very likely to leave their jobs in the next year (CUPA-HR).
Lack of Insights
Despite spending millions on recruitment, communications, and support, many schools still lack the insights to understand what’s working—or not. Only 13% of colleges describe themselves as “data-informed” (EDUCAUSE).
