Traditional Enrollment
Traditional students’ journey to enrollment begins as early as 8th grade.
When Students Begin to Research College***
Many students and parents start researching post-secondary education options by the time they enter high school and that’s when colleges, universities and vocational schools need to start marketing to capture their attention.
Schools who actively court students and parents at an early stage have more success converting inquirers into enrolled students.
