The Challenge

Getting Brooklyn Emerging Leaders Academy (BELA), a new public charter school tailored toward empowering young women, up and running proved challenging.

A key component of the startup process is increasing student enrollment to sustain the health and prosperity of the school, something especially critical in importance for new charter schools.

Staff at BELA knew that an online enrollment solution would be critical to their long-term success and sought to find the right fit for the needs of their staff and students.

The Solution

• Plan out the student enrollment process and research online platforms.
• Customize and manage the chosen platform, the student registration and re-registration software SchoolMint Enroll, to fit the unique needs of the school.
• Easily inform and update students and families throughout each step of the process.
• Use up-to-date information to make data-based enrollment decisions that will assist in marketing and future outreach.

The Results

• Optimized their enrollment management with SchoolMint Enroll to allow students and families easy access and completion of the enrollment process.
• Attained more visibility through the use of an online charter school app.
• Accomplished student enrollment goals without breaking their budget and with limited staff.
• Successfully filled their first incoming class of students — and have continued to grow enrollment year after year.
