Core Education Unveils Yield Solutions for Enrollment Leaders: Drive Admissions, Increase Deposits, and Secure Enrollments

ALEXANDRIA, Va., September 11, 2024 – Core Education is a Public Benefit Corporation committed to fostering growth and sustainability in higher education. As rising costs and declining enrollments challenge institutions, Core Education serves as a long-term strategic partner, executing holistic growth-enablement strategies to help institutions navigate these changes and future-proof their operations. 

Declining yield rates—from application to enrollment—have become a critical issue for chief enrollment officers. In today’s landscape of shifting demographics, shrinking applicant pools, and rising competition, top-of-the-funnel efforts alone are no longer sufficient. Institutions must focus on converting students already in the enrollment pipeline. To meet this challenge, Core Education is launching a comprehensive suite of yield management solutions designed to improve conversion rates at every stage of the enrollment funnel. By optimizing yield, we help institutions lower student acquisition costs and efficiently hit their enrollment goals.  

“We are excited to launch our new yield-focused enrollment management services—AdmitAdvantage, DepositBoost, and EnrollSecure,” said Kamalika Sandell, CEO of Core Education. “These solutions are integral to our mission of being a strategic partner for higher education institutions. Yield management is essential for enhancing institutional performance by addressing immediate enrollment challenges while supporting our broader goal of transforming the higher education business model. Our combined expertise in enrollment management, marketing, and technology uniquely positions us to offer unmatched support. In this new era of evolving challenges, our integrated approach ensures we tackle both immediate and systemic issues, driving long-term success.”
