Students Expect Modern Engagement
80% of students want an educational experience that matches their digital lifestyle. (KPMG)
One, Learner.
One, Journey.
Higher ed is in the era of personalization. Provide each student with a unique journey from enrollment to graduation using data to power one-to-one moments.
Education used to move at the institution’s pace
Traditionally, higher ed was designed around the institution’s agenda. Students were expected to adjust, wait, and navigate complex processes. Now, they seek an experience that meets them where they are, with personalized responses and on-demand engagement.

Anytime, Anywhere Support Is the New Standard
88% want the institutional experience (including admissions, registration, and payments) to be digitally accessible, and really easy to use. (KPMG)
One Learner, One Journey. Immediate and Personal.
Impersonal & Slow - The Old Way
Filling out lengthy forms that take days or weeks to hear back. Playing phone tag back and forth. Dealing with an application process that goes on for weeks (and even months). Students get frustrated when they have to wait. As a result, they might give up on enrolling or end up dropping out of school.✓ Prospects wait days or weeks for a response to a request for information form
✓ Communication is batch-and-blast and not personalized
✓ Students aren't sure who to go to with questions and never get a straight answer
Personalized & Immediate - The New Way
Streamlined, quick-response forms. Personalized and direct communication in the digital channel students prefer. A concise application process that takes only days (or even less). When students receive timely, personalized, and cohesive communication, they stay engaged, enrolled, and thrive in school.
✓ Every form submission triggers a personalized, relevant, and timely message
✓ Every email or text sent is unique to that learner's stage, needs, and interests
✓ Student questions are anticipated, and they always get the right answer
The cost of impersonal is huge
