To give you fresh inspiration as we count down to Decision Day, we asked our student ambassadors what resonated most when they were accepted to college and in their early days as freshmen! 🏫 From Pomona College's super personalized acceptance package to personal stories shared during University of Virginia's orientation, the examples in our latest blog post reflect the power of personalization and connection. 🤝 These stories emphasize the need for colleges to create genuine, impactful experiences that resonate deeply with prospective students, from their initial acceptance to when they cross the stage at graduation and beyond. 🎓 Read the full post: https://lnkd.in/eR8Et5RN #HigherEd #HigherEducation #CollegeAdmissions #CollegeEnrollment

Another post about AI on LinkedIn? Groundbreaking. But we swear this one is different! 😉 Our latest blog post breaks down the 7 things you NEED to know about generative AI right now, including: 1️⃣ You may have access to tools you don’t even know about. Beginning in January of 2025, Google embedded a range of advanced AI capabilities into its Workspace Business and Enterprise plans, potentially eliminating the need for additional add-ons. 2️⃣ Prospective parents and students expect it. As AI becomes increasingly integrated into our daily lives, institutions need to seriously consider how they use AI tools to recruit, engage and enroll families. 3️⃣ Your favorite LLMs (Large Language Models) have improved significantly. With Claude 3.7 Sonnet, ChatGPT-4.5 and Gemini 2.0, Anthropic, OpenAI and Google have taken their popular models to the next level. Whether you’re strategizing about content or engaging with other school leaders, the key is to approach this technology thoughtfully and proactively to unlock its full potential. 🤖 Read the full post: https://lnkd.in/eKRhb4bp #HigherEd #HigherEducation #K12 #GenerativeAI
