SMS Marketing and Communication for your University

Example of how Universities can use it

Universities - SMS Messaging Campaigns

Overview and Benefits

Over the years Text Messaging has established itself as the prominent method of communication amongst students.

Social media posts from the university may be ignored and in general students use social media for personal communication. Emails are just not opened and many millennials do not even have active email accounts. 80% of students prefer to be reached via SMS. St. Mary's reported that 42% of students reached through text paid their deposit to attend the university compared to 26% of all accepted students.

Through our work with Universities, we have discovered several important benefits for text message marketing and communication:

Increases applications and admissions by texting prospective students

Increase attendance of school events

Instantly reach students with important alerts and updates

Great for emergency alerts on campus

Reduce printing costs while increasing read rates

SMS can be sent (and received) at the right precise moment to encourage the greatest response

Can be used to send targeted messages to the different student groups

Collect feedback and opinions quickly via SMS polling and ask your students to text back with Feedback
