With Gen Zers being the current target, the average \u201cstudent\u201d has accustomed to a way of life spurred by digitization, technology, and society\u2019s focus on the individual. Point being: they want to be courted, catered to, and appreciated. All of which are, of course, entirely natural.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thus, how do universities best promote schools to incoming freshmen?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Be Relatable<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The most important facet of promoting a university is trying to step into the mind of an incoming freshman. Amidst the advent of the smartphone, the way people interact, communicate, and process information have changed. In which case, when creating stratagems, it\u2019s important to ask questions like:\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What mediums are they most likely to engage with for information?\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What are their current standards of living and how does our campus compare?\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What amenities are they used to?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What campus qualities seem to attract most of the current enrollees?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With advertisements popping up on every platform they use (all day long), does our language read authentic and truthful?\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To aid universities in their promotion, here\u2019s a compiled list of 10 ways to promote the school to incoming freshmen, piquing their interest and enticing their consideration.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>#1 Social Media | Twitter\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To increase awareness and create a personal dialogue, meet incoming freshmen where they live\u2014on social media. Consider marketing campaigns that boast the individuality of your campus. Tweet about the campaign and create hashtags around it. Allow the students to respond back and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">engage<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with them. If they feel that\u2014while having more insight into the university\u2014that they\u2019re also heard, they\u2019ll be more willing to consider the programs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Fun Tip:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Try to create a challenge or giveaway to inspire conversation!

Thus, investing in an online tour can be an amazing way to promote schools. Is there an architectural aspect of the campus that stands out? Is the student housing by a body of water or a beautiful landscape? Showcase these areas in one easily digestible video so potential candidates can experience the campus from afar.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>The Age of VR and Augmented Reality <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2013 With VR and augmented reality on the rise, why not invest in an experience that is as encompassing as it is immersive?

But a university can solve problems with technology, furthering the convenience of the freshmen\u2019s living situation. How?

Or, if the programs are catered to a specific industry, why not showcase the success of the alumni as a whole?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>A Guarantee <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2013 The job market is constantly flooded with recent graduates. The reality is that a college degree no longer equates\u2014in totality\u2014to a high paying job. To that end, use data to promote schools! The closer a candidate feels to a guarantee, the more inclined they\u2019ll be to consider the university.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>#5 Webinar\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If it\u2019s not apparent, there\u2019s <a href=\"\/en-us\/blog\/5-game-changing-trends-in-college-student-housing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">trends in college student housing<\/a> here. Today, it is imperative that a college has a strong online presence. Instead of asking candidates to meet at the campuses (to learn more about the university), why not invite them to a webinar? This will allow students from all over to interact with the staff, ask questions about the school, and gain a better understanding of the campus and<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> school community.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A few great webinar platforms include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zoom<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">EverWebinar\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Web2Present<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Demio<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WebEx<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>#6 Pay for The Trip<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Colleges are now offering <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.usnews.com\/education\/best-colleges\/articles\/2017-05-01\/diversity-fly-in-programs-make-campus-visits-accessible\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">fly-in programs<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2014often geared towards students with a low socioeconomic status\u2014to pay for candidates to visit their campus. This ties into the \u201cbring the tour to them\u201d suggestion, yet it\u2019s a lot more personal. If a student feels valued from the onset, knowing that this college is ready to <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">support<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> them, then they\u2019ll be likelier to enroll.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>A \u201cTaste Test\u201d <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2013 By creating a program that welcomes these potential candidates, universities foster a sense of community. Students can begin to create connections, network, and become attached to the campus prior to enrolling.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>#7 The Phone Call | It\u2019s Now A Novelty\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In decades prior, the telemarketer ruined the intimacy of the phone call. Today, however, the phone call is regaining its appeal. As Gen Zers and other smart phone generations are used to communicating via text, receiving a phone call from a campus could be an extremely personal, rewarding, and even exciting experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Empowering the Students <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2013 If a candidate receives a personal phone call, not only will they feel unique, but they\u2019ll be further willing to communicate. Promote schools the old-fashioned way and universities might be surprised as to how they\u2019re received.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>#8 Reinvent the Cafeteria\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A common thought might be that a student would hardly ever consider a campus specifically for its food choices\u2014and it\u2019s not irrational. Yet, it\u2019s not entirely correct, either. In a world growing increasingly environmentally-conscious<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, young people <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">are eating healthier. Not only do they want to reduce their carbon footprint, but they also want to treat their bodies well.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Set the Right Intention <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2013 If the university is willing to invest in their students\u2019 health <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and well-being<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, this action is indicative of how a school regards its pupils. A student might be likelier to enroll when they know a school goes out of their way to cater to their students.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>#9 QR Code, Anyone?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As colleges continue to experiment with their promotion tactics, QR codes are beginning to gain popularity. What\u2019s a QR code? QR stands for \u201cQuick Response Code\u201d and, once someone scans it with their phone, it\u2019ll take them directly to the college\u2019s website (often specifically to a landing page).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Posters! <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2013 If a university designs posters with a given barcode, then a prospective student can walk up to it, scan it, and land immediately on the website. This is a process they\u2019re familiar with. Additionally, they can create different landing pages for different poster variations, testing them against each other with direct, measurable data (the traffic to each specific page).\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>#10 Try for Viral<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If a university has a film program, they should consider trying to incentivize <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">students<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to create content promoting the school. Today, the short-form video is digital marketing\u2019s not-so-secret weapon.
