Know your feeder schools before travel season

Try the agent live

Every fall, enrollment teams send counselors into the field with the same fundamental question still unanswered: which high schools actually matter for our class?

The answer is in your data. It's in years of enrollment history, in the zip codes and feeder schools that have consistently produced applicants, admits, and enrolled students. But pulling that analysis together — and turning it into actual counselor assignments and travel plans — takes time most teams don't have before travel season starts.

The High School Feeder Analysis gives you that picture, and lets you act on it, in a single workflow.

What the analysis surfaces

Your enrollment agent analyzes your enrollment history and feeder school data to answer the questions that travel planning actually requires:

             
  • Where is your class coming from? Geographic and school-level breakdowns by volume and yield rate
  •          
  • Where are the emerging markets? High schools with growing applicant pools that may be underserved by your current counselor coverage
  •          
  • Which relationships matter most? Schools where the counselor relationship is a known factor in enrollment outcomes — and where it's currently thin
  •          
  • What's changed since last cycle? Shifts in feeder school performance that should change how you allocate resources this year
  •        

From analysis to action

Once the picture is clear, the agent doesn't stop at the report. It turns the feeder analysis into immediate outputs:

             
  • Counselor-specific territory recommendations based on where each rep has the highest expected impact
  •          
  • Draft travel plans optimized for coverage and relationship priority
  •          
  • Flags for high schools where a new or renewed relationship could matter most next cycle
  •        

Your team can review, adjust, and act — without the weeks of prep work that usually precede travel season.

Run it before the calendar fills up

Travel season moves fast once it starts. The Feeder Analysis is most valuable when you have time to act on it — adjusting assignments, scheduling visits, reaching out to contacts at emerging schools before your competitors do.

The earlier you run it, the more options you have going into fall.
