Build & utilize financial aid module in the CRM product to leverage Financial Aid in the Enrollment Process



Initiative TitleBuild & utilize financial aid module in the CRM product to leverage Financial Aid in the Enrollment Process
Submitted in Previous Year(s)No
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale

Admissions has been unable to utilize a students financial aid package as a recruitment tool. We would like to work with financial aid to create messaging that can be sent out automatically through our CRM encouraging students to apply and complete the financial aid process. 

We would also like to create a mechanism that would allow us to mail out a preliminary financial aid award letter with a students acceptance packet. 

Consequences of this initiative not being funded

Not staying competitive with other two-year & four-year schools.
