With increasing competition to attract the highest calibre of students, institutions are having to work harder to stand out. 2018 saw a 40% increase in unconditional offers, reflecting the pressure on institutions to maintain student numbers despite a market squeeze caused by a lack of 18 year olds.
We’re delivering tools to help institutions engage with prospective applicants, support students thought their journey, and ensure long lasting relationships post-graduation.
