The Challenge

Needing a designated staff member solely to focus on entering student application and enrollment data for months at a time, Union Hill was beginning to feel the burden of their time- and resource-consuming enrollment process.

Relying on paper forms was becoming outdated and endless — as well as unhelpful in obtaining the data needed to better serve students and families.

The Solution

  • Identify student enrollment process deficiencies and research solutions, eventually finding SchoolMint Enroll.
  • Manage data and processes through the use of an online enrollment system (SchoolMint Enroll) that could manage all components of the enrollment process, including applications and student registration.
  • Effectively communicate with families through each step to accelerate enrollment process.
  • Use real-time student enrollment data to guide current and future strategic student enrollment decisions.

The Results

  • With an online system like SchoolMint Enroll, families could submit applications, upload documents, accept offers, and complete registration packets all from their mobile phone.
  • Data was captured instantly in the admin dashboards, no longer necessitating manual data entry.
  • With more descriptive and updated data as well as features within SchoolMint Enroll’s registration and re-registration functionality, the district could easily identify students with special needs, such as students with IEPs, severe allergies, or even custody issues — long before the first week of school.
  • Increased parent communication. Up-to-date information provides new opportunities for connection and engagement with families.
  • Real-time data to help with projected enrollment and move students through the process faster and get on waitlists sooner.
  • Kept operational costs down and student enrollment numbers sustainable.
