How We Can Help
Timely, direct messaging that meets students where they are. We work with campus partners to deliver high-impact texts that prompt action at critical points in the enrollment cycle, from application deadlines to registration reminders.
Text messaging should be reserved for high-priority communications that require timely action.
Examples Include:
- Registration reminders
- Application deadlines
- Event reminders
- Missing document notifications
- Enrollment next steps
- Time-sensitive student actions
Text messages should not be used for lengthy informational updates that are better suited for email.
Important Guidelines
- Text messages require documented student consent
- Messages may be adjusted to meet compliance or character limitations
- Requests promoting non-strategic or non-student-focused initiatives may be declined.
- Text messages should complement, not replace, email communications whenever possible
