MSOE

Admission Website & Integrated Community

Integrating Information, Tracking Success

With higher ed enrollment declining every year, it is becoming increasingly difficult for universities to maintain a steady population of incoming students. Milwaukee School of Engineering is applying their trademark of ingenuity to a new, web-based admission process in an effort to rise above the crowd.

MSOE partnered with 7Summits to develop a rich, web-based application tool that is tightly woven into a community platform for prospective students. The robust online community, Bridge, creates a space where students, parents, and counselors can share resources and engage in conversation. It also serves as a launch pad to the admission process. Once a part of the community, candidates can plug into a powerful application platform directly integrated with MSOE’s admission system. An online dashboard is then available for students to follow an advanced tracking monitor, review accomplishments, and learn what steps are needed to gain acceptance to their program.

 

Putting the ‘Conversion’ in ‘Conversation’

By engaging students from the very start, MSOE is able to build early relationships with their candidates while instantly allowing them to become familiar with the campus environment. Insights to various programs and campus culture ensure compatibility between candidates and the university. The Bridge community brings parents and students within a few clicks away from a knowledgeable team of counselors and advisors. Together, these rich interactions encourage students to complete the admissions process and, in turn, increase MSOE’s conversion rate during the application stage.
