4 Proven Strategies to Increase Enrollment

Over the past two years, postsecondary enrollment has decreased by 7.4% in the US. If that stat doesn’t get you thinking of new strategies to increase intake at your school this year, nothing will!

With intense competition among universities and colleges, grabbing the attention of prospective students is only half the battle. You also need to prove that your school is the right choice — and one of the most critical elements in doing so is student support. Today’s prospective students expect fast, digital, and convenient experiences, and traditional phone and email channels alone are no longer enough to meet those expectations.
