In the competitive landscape of UK higher education, institutions are continually seeking ways to attract new prospects and the “best fit” applicants for the education pathways on offer (UG, PG, Apprenticeships etc). Improving the admissions processes and enhancing the experience for prospective students is highly desirable but challenging where it is not possible or practical to rationalise multiple CRMs into a single platform. Another strategy gaining traction is the development of partnerships with other institutions, which becomes yet another source of data that the Student Information System (SIS) is keenly interested in.
Let’s explore five key features of integrating your SIS with multiple admissions solutions and how they transform the management of student admissions.
Streamlining Engagement:
Integrated systems allow for the automatic sending of follow-up communications to prospective students based on their interests and preferences. This personalized approach keeps applicants engaged and informed throughout the admissions process, ultimately enhancing their experience with your institution.
Transparency and Accountability:
Prospective students can track the status of their applications in real-time, providing transparency and accountability in the admissions process. This feature reduces uncertainty and anxiety for applicants while demonstrating your institution’s commitment to efficiency and communication.
Efficient Documentation:
Integration facilitates the electronic submission of required documents, such as transcripts and test scores, streamlining the admissions process for both applicants and administrative staff. This eliminates the need for manual handling of paperwork and reduces processing times, improving overall efficiency.
Efficiency Redefined:
Integration eliminates manual data entry and paper-based workflows, freeing up valuable time and resources for administrative staff. Tasks such as data collection, processing, and reporting become more efficient and accurate, allowing staff to focus on higher-value activities.
Informed Decision-Making:
Integrated systems provide actionable insights through unified data collection and analysis. Decision-makers can access real-time enrollment data, analyze trends, and forecast future admissions needs, empowering them to make informed decisions that drive strategic planning and resource allocation.
