SMART Approach®
Qualify student names before you purchase them
Qualifying your lists of prospective students is a tough task. You purchase names, send out communications, and move students through the funnel, walking a tightrope trying to get the number and type of students your campus needs.
SMART (Strategic Market Analysis Research Team) Approach allows you to qualify your list purchases before you buy a single name. This advanced predictive modeling tool shows the enrollment probabilities of millions of student leads, prior to your list purchase—giving you a strategic advantage over traditional list purchases.
This cost-effective process can save you time and money, while also helping you uncover strong prospective student leads with incredible precision.
Pinpoint your best leads and expand your markets
SMART Approach applies a Noel-Levitz predictive model to more than 5 million names in the National Research Center for College & University Admissions (NRCCUA) database —the largest database containing the postsecondary plans of high school students.
Adding NRCCUA's rich data to the modeling process offers superior predictability compared to other information providers. This combination allows you to:
- See the probability of enrollment for each individual student lead
- Streamline your list purchases and segment them by a while range of variables—academic ability, geographic location, majors, and more
- Branch into new markets easily and uncover new groups of high quality student leads
- Increase your enrollment yields by focusing on students who are the most likely to enroll and are the best fit for your institution
Get greater enrollment yields from your name purchases
SMART Approach helps you populate your funnel with students who higher quality leads. Instead of having to go through the task of qualifying prospective students from your list purchases, you can target the students you want at the very beginning of the recruitment process—and be confident that your efforts will result in a successful enrollment.
