Admissions and enrolment
Unlock the huge potential for admissions to drive growth
Admissions should be recognised as the engine room of any recruitment operation. Done well, admissions builds trust and loyalty among your business partners and boosts their propensity to recommend your institution to prospective students. Done poorly, it erodes trust and becomes a roadblock for students. And when bottlenecks occur in admissions, it can frequently build a sense of unease throughout an institution, and create a need to drag in extra resources to manage expectations.
At Edified, we elevate the status of admissions, giving it the attention it deserves. We can help you refine and optimise your admissions framework, deploying advanced technologies, optimising processes, and enhancing communications for dramatically improved results.
We’re highly experienced in managing admissions teams and helping translate established processes so they become much more student-centric.
We can help you use automation and artificial intelligence – integrating the right technologies and systems seamlessly – to help you significantly improve turnaround times, handle fluctuations in volume without impacting the quality of your service, prioritise applications effectively, manage data and reporting, and heighten conversion.
But first, we boost the understanding of key decision-makers about the critical nature of admissions. We show them how and why admissions is so important. And we show them the scale of the challenge to get it right – as well as the likely return on investment. If Admissions isn’t firing, everything else your institution does is diminished. When it equals best practice, admissions becomes the single biggest opportunity for your institution to differentiate itself and drive growth in student numbers and revenue.
We help raise admissions status to deliver outstanding outcomes for you, your students and
your agents.
