“We need to drive enrollment.”
Who we serve · Schools and educational programs
Enrollment is a decision of trust.
Parents and students do not pick a school the way they pick a restaurant. The decision is months long, multi-audience, and emotionally loaded. Your site has to hold up to every reader, from the searching parent to the visiting board member.
Three minutes to score. Free audit back in five business days. Both diagnose your digital legitimacy. No deck, no pitch.
Six months, six readers, and one site they all judge you by.
An enrollment decision is not a click. It's a months-long arc, and different readers check the same site at different stages. Optimize for one and the others drop out.
- Month 1 · Awareness
A parent hears your name.
From another parent, a search, a Sunday-paper article. The first impression is a name and an instinct. They google you.
Reader: Parent
- Months 2-3 · Research
"Does this match what we want for our kid?"
They read the philosophy, the academics, the calendar, the faculty page. The site has to be a real document, not a brochure.
Reader: Parent + student
- Month 4 · Visit
Open house, virtual tour, sit-in day.
The site books the visit. Calendar that doesn't ask for an account, video tour for far-away families, clear directions, name of who they'll meet.
Reader: Whole family
- Month 5 · Application
Application without an exhausted parent at midnight.
Save-and-resume, document upload that works, fee waiver path, clear timeline. The friction of the form often decides who applies.
Reader: Parent
- Month 6 · Decision
Why us over the other school they got into?
Acceptance period content: alumni stories, current-family voices, financial-aid clarity, what year one looks like. The yield campaign starts here, not at the application.
Reader: Parent + extended family
- Enrolled
The family says yes.
The site delivered them to a real decision. It also seeded the next family they tell.
Reader: Future parents
The site that wins enrollment is not the prettiest. It's the one that meets every reader at every stage with the answer they came to find.
Who you are
Recognize your school, your program, your families here?

How we serve every reader in an enrollment decision.
- 01
Map the route.
Awareness to inquiry to tour to application to enrollment. Each stage has its own page logic. We design the entire arc, not just the homepage.
- 02
Audience layering.
Prospective families, current families, donors, faculty, alumni. One site, many readers. We build the structure and tone for each.
- 03
Showcase the proof.
Outcomes, faculty depth, student stories, accreditation, alumni networks. The proof a parent actually weighs.
- 04
Inquiry as priority one.
The application starts the moment a parent visits. Forms, schedulers, virtual tours, all designed for a yes.

How much does an enrollment-focused school site cost?
Most K-12 and college builds run $25,000 to $75,000 depending on enrollment workflows, parent portals, and content depth. Care plans run $199 to $1,200 per month; SEO retainers run $1,000 to $3,500 per month. For most schools, one additional enrollment covers the retainer for the year. Do that math with your own tuition number.
-
Will you integrate with our SIS, admissions software, or LMS?
If your platform is standard for the sector (Blackbaud, FACTS, Veracross, Canvas, and their peers), integration is routine work. If yours is unusual, we will confirm feasibility before you sign, and we can build custom application portals when off-the-shelf does not fit.
-
Can the site speak to multiple audiences without becoming a maze?
Yes. We design audience-aware navigation so prospective parents, current families, donors, and alumni each find what they need in two clicks. The audience is not a dropdown menu, it is the architecture itself.
-
How do you handle virtual tours, application forms, and tour scheduling?
We build them in as first-class conversion paths, not afterthoughts. Integrated schedulers, embedded video tours, multi-step applications with progress saving, and instrumented funnels so admissions can see where applicants drop off.
-
Will we be able to update curriculum, calendar, and faculty pages ourselves?
Yes. We build on a CMS your team can run without us. Admissions, marketing, and academics each get scoped editing access, and we train them. Most schools call us for strategy after launch, not content edits.
