St. John Fisher College Case Study

With the help of Carnegie's Slate Optimization team, Underscore, Fisher’s admissions team was able to better manage all these competing tasks and approach each project with tested best practices and proven experience. Carnegie’s Slate team provided extensive and ongoing implementation support (modeled after the Technolutions Roadmap) to identify key milestones and ensure students would be recruited and have the ability to apply in the fall. Transferring the necessary enrollment data to Slate while effectively utilizing that data during an ongoing implementation cycle is tricky, but Carnegie's Slate experts were able to collaborate with the implementation and build reports that ensured no students were left behind in the active recruitment cycle. In tandem with the Implementation and operational improvements, our Slate content experts were focused on engaging with prospective students. By building a dynamic portal for both undergraduate and graduate students to utilize throughout the entire application cycle, the team made sure that relevant data was accessible to students at every stage of the funnel. Additionally, Fisher was supported with an extensive multichannel Senior Search campaign to ensure that their recruitment efforts didn’t lag during the implementation.
