Colleges should consider their appeal to students of different political persuasions, but remaining true to mission, values, and enduring identity is key. In my latest article on Volt, I dive into two strategic questions to ask when navigating state, campus, and student politics. https://lnkd.in/g7W49Qea

"Is this a red campus or blue campus?" Today's students are asking. In fact, 1 in 5 college-bound students say they would not go to college on a campus or in a state that differs significantly from their own politics. In two weeks, I'll be sharing highlights from our research into the influence of politics on college choice, and most importantly, exploring real-life examples of how schools are actively navigating our politically charged recruitment landscape. I hope you'll join me! #AMAHigherEd #HigherEdMarketing

Marketing online programs can be tricky. When your prospective students are no longer limited by local zip codes, it’s tempting to expand your student search far and wide. 🗺️ But research shows that just because students can enroll from their couch across the country doesn’t mean they will. On average, 70% of fully online students live within 100 miles of campus. In order for your ad campaigns to be effective, you have to develop a keen skill for killer targeting. In this article, we’ll teach you why—and dive into how successful online programs get to know their own neighborhoods first. Read the article: https://lnkd.in/ejxu33pB

Ever wondered about how much politics are affecting enrollment? 🤔 We recently conducted a nationwide survey where we asked 1,000+ students what they thought about politics—and how much it’s factoring into their college decision. We made some pretty interesting discoveries. We’re hosting a webinar + Q&A to discuss the most important findings from our research. On Tuesday, October 1, we’ll dig into some surprising insights about college-bound students, uncover students’ top concerns when choosing a college, and discuss how other institutions are approaching political discourse on campus.
