LONDON, United Kingdom, May 28, 2003 -
edGenuiti Worldwide announced a strategic partnership with Educational Directories Unlimited to deliver a suite of new technology services to the collegiate study abroad and graduate school student recruiting markets. With student demand for education at an all-time high and recruiting budgets shrinking, these new services are designed to give education administrators cost-effective tools to manage student inquiries and convert them into enrollments.
edGenuiti Worldwide produces web-based enterprise software designed specifically for higher education. edGenuiti allows colleges and universities to manage and integrate all aspects of recruitment, admissions, student services and institutional advancement. edGenuiti technologies offer a wide range of useful tools that help institutions reduce operations costs, increase efficiencies and meet compliance obligations. It is the only system that enables institutions to integrate and manage on and off-line data and communication with a school's entire constituency using virtually any medium such as e-mail, telephone, direct mail and even today's mobile simple-text-messaging technology. edGenuiti, through similar partnerships, processes over 4 million communications each day in 50 countries for nearly 2,500 colleges and universities.
Educational Directories Unlimited, producer of popular student portals such as StudyAbroad.com, GradSchools.com and EducationforAdults.com, will bring edGenuiti to new sectors of higher education through its EDU Internet Strategies consulting division. "Bringing edGenuiti technologies to our 1,500 customers allows us to deliver a full service recruiting package," said Mark Shay, Founder and CEO of Educational Directories Unlimited. "Schools find that advertising on our sites is very successful in generating student inquiries and edGenuiti will now enable us to help our clients turn these leads into enrollments. edGenuiti's online application technology is like no other system we have evaluated. Each application is customized to the individual school. edGenuiti's application tool gives the institution unlimited ability to make needed updates or changes easily - it is as easy as using the web."
