Beyond Academics: How Universities Can Benefit from Partnering with Univiser

November 18, 2022

At a time when the higher education landscape is more competitive than ever, universities are looking for ways to stand out from the crowd.

One way they can do this is by partnering with Univiser, a peer-to-peer platform that allows prospective students to connect with current students and get information that goes beyond academics.

Univiser's platform offers a number of benefits for universities, including the ability to connect with more prospects, and build relationships with students earlier in the college decision-making process through well-trained student ambassadors representing their institution.

The Benefits offered by Univiser to Universities and Colleges

1. The universities that partner with Univiser have the advantage of being able to allocate any number student ambassadors, alumni or even lecturers as representatives for their institution on the Univiser peer-to-peer platform.

The Benefits to the student ambassadors getting on board with Univiser are:

• Develop communication skills: The student ambassadors will develop communication skills by talking to prospects from different regions and from all walks of life.

• Develop Mentoring Skills: The student ambassadors will also develop their professional mentoring skills by constantly explaining different aspects of the culture of the institutions they are representing, the activities that take place apart from the academics and so on.

• Networking: The student ambassadors who get on board with us have the opportunity to network and build important relationships through the global ambassadors' community where they could interact and engage with other student ambassadors like them from around the world.

2. Univiser provides data-driven insights that can help the partnering universities make student recruitment more effective and maximize their marketing efforts, making them more competitive in the higher education landscape.

The types of valuable data that could be accessed after getting on board with Univiser:

• The data of the number of prospective students inquiring about the university.

• The data on most inquired subject matter by prospects. This can help understand what the target audience is interested in. By keeping tabs on this information, you can better cater to your target market.

• The data on the geographical locations of prospects that can help sales teams better understand where their target audience are located. This information can be used to improve marketing and sales strategies, for instance by tailoring content and sales pitches to specific regions.

The Most Inquired Subject Matter by Prospects - Above and Beyond Academics

While working together with a number or reputable institutions, we brought together data from multiple colleges and universities individually in order to develop a marketing strategy that worked for each institution.

As a result, we at Univiser did notice that the most intrigued subjects were mostly related to the non-academic aspects of the University such as:

• The inclusion of students from diverse backgrounds in all university related activities.

• The mental health awareness at the university. Universities focusing on the mental health of their students make sure that their students have the resources they need to stay healthy and succeed academically. Prospects often take this into consideration.

• The peaceful coexistence of students from different religious backgrounds.

These data show that universities need to focus more on the non-academic aspects in order to attract and retain the best prospective students.
