Clark University Partners with HelioCampus to Optimize Financial Aid Strategy
WASHINGTON (PRWEB) July 10, 2018 -- HelioCampus, a technology-enabled services company, has partnered with the Clark University to help them increase their enrollment, improve retention and assist with financial aid optimization.
As part of an overall data management initiative, Clark prioritized finding a partner to provide an enterprise-level, analytics solution. After further discovery and prioritization of needs, their scope evolved to include a data platform, data visualization and ongoing data science services. HelioCampus was well positioned to support their near and long-term objectives and in the spring of 2018, Clark and HelioCampus entered into a multi-year partnership to accelerate Clark’s path toward institutional analytics.
“As a small, private institution in New England, we are in an increasingly competitive market for high-achieving students. The ability for HelioCampus to help us develop data informed strategies that help us to define our most successful students and position us to recruit and retain these students is critical to ensuring our long term, institutional health,” said Pennie Turgeon, Vice President for Information Technology and CIO at Clark University.
“When the higher education landscape changes, so does the need to revise financial aid strategies for institutions. We are excited to partner with Clark University to help them build a more sophisticated analytics capability to leverage financial aid as a strategic driver for student success,” said HelioCampus CEO, Darren Catalano.
