What is manual admissions costing you?

Three quick numbers, and you’ll see the annual opportunity hiding in a manual admissions process — enrolments lost to slow follow-up, staff hours burned on busywork, and compliance risk. Built for BC private career colleges, with conservative, editable assumptions you can take to your board.

New starts across all programs in a typical year — the number you actually run, not approved program capacity.

Roughly what one student pays for a typical program. A rough average is fine.

How fast do you respond to a new inquiry?

Speed-to-lead is the single biggest driver of how many inquiries become enrolments. Be honest — the slower you are today, the more there is to recover.

Adjust for a board-grade number

Doesn’t change the estimate — but it lets us show your current conversion rate.

Everything below is pre-estimated from your enrolment volume. Adjust for a board-grade number — or leave it and we’ll use conservative defaults.

Honest by design

This is a conservative model, not a sales gimmick. The headline is driven only by the numbers you report, never by approved-program counts (which overstate real operations). The enrolment lift is shown as a range and capped, and every assumption is editable above. Labor and compliance figures value your own staff time and risk — they don’t assume a single dollar of new spending.

Figures are an illustrative estimate based on your inputs and conservative industry benchmarks for speed-to-lead, follow-up, and admissions workload. They are not a forecast, a guarantee of results, or financial advice. Your actual results depend on your programs, market, and execution. Use this as a directional business case, and validate against your own data before acting.
