AY RECRUITING SOLUTIONS SIGNS 5 NEW AGREEMENTS WITH BUSINESS SCHOOLS ACROSS THE GLOBE
Fairfax, Virginia - August 23, 2007 - AY Recruiting Solutions, leader in online admissions and recruitment services for colleges and universities, announced today that it has recently signed 5 new agreements with major business schools in the United States and Europe. These schools will leverage AY’s industry leading i-Class system to streamline their admissions and enrollment process. The AY i-Class suite of products provides institutions with the capability to identify target audiences, market their programs effectively, process data quickly and manage records securely. Among its functions, i-Class ensures that prospective students stay engaged with schools throughout the enrollment process, providing customized messages and feedback as they complete key steps toward application and enrollment.
The 4 newest business schools to begin implementing the i-Class System are Clark University Graduate School of Management, Northeastern University Graduate School of Business Administration, UCLA Anderson School of Management and Oxford Said School of Business. AY Recruiting Solutions is also expanding into Purdue University’s Krannert School of Management as part of a long-term, growing relationship with the University.
"The AY i-Class system gives us the flexibility to design a cost-effective process that integrates our application across eight different degree programs that feed into our internal legacy database systems,” said Katy Bunder, Purdue University Krannert School of Management Associate Director of Admissions. “AY also enables our Admissions Office to coordinate effectively with other departments on campus."
The i-Class system enables these schools to communicate with prospects, respond to inquiries, schedule events, process applications, facilitate online recommendations, deliver application status and decisions and manage student enrollment online – offering the technology and functionality to remain competitive in the ever-changing higher education recruitment environment.
A desire to coordinate multiple services and quality admissions initiatives is driving many colleges and universities to the AY i-Class System. “An increasing number of leading business schools are seeking to match their high quality standards of education with their application and enrollment processes. We fundamentally believe that the key to admissions and enrollment improvement lies in the codependence of speed and efficiency and more effectively connecting all cogs of the admissions machine. The i-Class system is making that possible for these business schools,” said Len Metheny, President and CEO of AY Recruiting Solutions.
