Leveraging Orientation Tech to Innovate Beyond Expectations
Georgia State University
At Advantage Design Group®, we make it easy to adapt online student orientation best practices with our online orientation to improve enrollment and increase positive student experiences. Georgia State University needed a new student orientation to
- Enhance the in-person program across six campuses to support enrollment
- Simultaneously provide an experience that combines in-person and virtual elements
They created a comprehensive strategy to provide onboarding support from admission to orientation and ultimately to enrollment by:
- Moving orientation content to a digital environment
- Improving accessibility
- Better serving an increase in diverse audiences
Powered by Advantage Orientation®, their new orientation platform enables a seamless and personalized onboarding experience for all members of the Georgia State University family. As a result, the university experienced decreased orientation melt and no-show rates.
Contrary to some enrollment trends, in just one season Georgia State began:
- Welcoming over 25K new students, families, and staff through online orientation
- Decreasing No-Show Rates by over 10% during a global pandemic
- Enrolling the largest freshman class in University history
