Students Don’t Just Pick Schools. They Pick Values.
Confidence in higher education is declining. However, students do not need to trust the entire industry. They need to trust your institution.
That trust begins with how your school communicates its values. Students are more likely to engage with colleges that reflect their beliefs and actively support causes such as diversity, equity, and inclusion, mental health, and campus safety. In fact, 52% of students say they would reconsider enrollment if those programs were removed.
Personal connection also plays a critical role. More than 40% of students want a personal invitation to visit, and many say peer-to-peer communication is one of the most persuasive forms of outreach.
Branding and personalization are not soft strategies. They are essential tools for enrollment success.
