Improve Yield
Keep the excitement of being accepted into college going. Authentic stories from current students and alumni give incoming learners an idea of what to expect and encouragement.

PeopleGrove helps learners boost confidence in building connections and reassures them they made the right choice for college.
Explore Career Outcomes
Trying new things with little risk – and a support system – better prepares students for planning beyond college.

Alumni are universities’ greatest brand ambassadors. And empowering them to share their story with prospective students goes a long way.
Inside Every PeopleGrove Student Enrollment Solution
A centralized community of current students, faculty, and alumni ready to extend a warm welcome
Increase Applications
- Captivate every prospective student. The real way to highlight what makes one university different from the rest is to leverage authentic voices of its community. Happy students, inspiring faculty, and accomplished alumni show what campus life is all about.
- Engage early with students via live support. Make it easy for prospective students and their families to connect with Admissions & Enrollment staff when they have questions. It's streamlined advising and no more waiting on hold.
Improve Yield
- Leave a lasting impression. Imagine the joy a student feels if they received a custom welcome video along with their admissions acceptance envelope. It's an immediate connection to peers and campus life, and in PeopleGrove, anyone can do this in a minute or less.
- #PoweredByInfluencers. Word of mouth is the strongest form of marketing. When universities use student and alumni testimonials to tell authentic stories about their campus and career experience, it impacts prospective learners during their decision-making process.
Reduce Summer Melt
- Meet future classmates before class starts. Drive a sense of belonging and more interactions between prospective and current students to achieve deeper engagement. As future learners build relationships, they’ll be more likely to enroll and succeed.
- Replace anxiety with excitement. From picking a college to submitting forms on time, the enrollment process is daunting. Offer greater support from peers and alumni to reduce the stress for prospective students.
First Year Persistence
- Like Google Maps, but for onboarding. When a student’s journey from freshman to sophomore in college feels more like turn by turn directions, they know exactly where they need to go.
- Pair incoming students with an experienced peer. It’s helpful for learners to get advice from someone further in their journey. And since alumni in PeopleGrove want to guide incoming students, it’s a win-win.

Curated Content
A more strategic approach to digital content
When content is tailored to specific audiences, accessible on mobile devices, and part of a larger discussion, improved learning follows. (So does deeper engagement.) Students interact with relevant content – and, when they find what they need, university staff discover what’s important to them.
