Description

The University requests proposals from Offerors with extensive expertise and a proven track record in a competitive admissions and enrollment environment related to Financial Aid Optimization. The University seeks a financial aid and enrollment partnership that can provide strong application yield rates among qualified students with an emphasis on growing in-state freshmen and transfers, expanding established out-of-state, first-year markets, and leveraging financial aid data to build a robust incoming class with desired academic characteristics while meeting the University’s fiscal needs and enrollment goals. The key requirements of the project include: • Increase enrollment of In-state applicants • Increase enrollment of qualified applicants from other key geographic markets • Increase enrollment of non-healthcare-related academic programs • Return on investment • Net tuition revenue The Offeror is expected to dedicate a project team to this effort on behalf of the Office for Student Access and Success and provide a comprehensive proposal that includes project approach and methodology, qualifications and experience, and additional information as needed.
