BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CollegeVine, the AI company transforming recruitment at colleges, universities, and other institutions, has onboarded its first 50 partners who are deploying agentic AI to deliver personalized, one-on-one engagement with prospective students at scale.
Colleges, universities, and other institutions are facing increasing challenges. With limited resources and financial dilemmas, colleges are closing at a rate of one per week and are turning to mass recruiting efforts to attract new students and stay afloat. As a result, the median high school student receives 1,300 college emails a year, yet only 13.6% reported that outreach was a strong motivator to apply.
Students are also dissatisfied with current college recruitment and admissions. While 46% of students have never talked to an admissions officer in the past year, over 75% admit they would ask more questions to admissions officers if they had the opportunity to do so anonymously.
CollegeVine’s AI recruiter introduces a new paradigm to prospective student recruiting. Instead of leveraging traditional enrollment marketing consulting companies to engage hundreds of thousands of students through static drip campaigns, colleges and universities are instead choosing to allocate budget toward agentic AI.
"Higher education has been a historically slower industry to adopt new technologies,” said Zack Perkins, co-founder and CEO at CollegeVine. “Fifty partners in two months is an amazing milestone. Our partners have moved mountains to make this happen because they know that this represents a fundamental disruption in the way that we recruit and enroll students.”
Agentic AI makes every interaction dynamic by operating simultaneous workflows across all prospects, learning from each interaction and determining the next best step to take to move prospective students along the path toward enrollment. Universities can train their AI recruiter to act on their behalf and reach prospective students across multiple media: phone call, text message, email, direct mail, and even custom swag.
