Enrollment Yield and Melt
“Our Facebook group for admitted students had been deteriorating with involvement over the last few years. Students just don’t have Facebook anymore. Wisr was a good option to incorporate peer-to-peer engagement and filled a need for socializing virtually. From now on, we will always have virtual elements built-in.”

Orientation
“I had been looking at online orientation solutions, but all the others had been so passive and almost completely excluded orientation leaders. Those could work for other schools, but our biggest selling point is our community and feeling of family. I could see student leaders getting involved and making the platform better with their unique ideas.”

Enrollment Yield and Melt + Orientation
“Wisr and Wayne State University share a vision to provide onboarding, academic, and career support to our students at every major point in their lifecycle. We’re excited to have launched Wisr with our recently admitted students, to provide trained current students as peer mentors through orientation and the first-year experience.”

Enrollment Yield and Melt + Orientation
“Here’s the real bottom line—we were able to yield our class plus some coverage for melt without the traditional campus visit that was such a big producer of our final enrolling class. It’s been very easy to work with Wisr, and the team there has been very responsive. We’re really excited to move forward with them.”
