245 Ellucian Testimonials

"Our initiative has had tremendous success with students, faculty, and staff."

"The student expectation of first-class institutions is akin to customer expectations from leading, world-class technology companies, like Apple. They want excellent in-person, over-the-phone, and online service, for everything they need."

“We knew Ellucian was all-in on trying to improve the complex continuing education registration system process, and Elevate puts all of our student learners—credit and non-credit—in the same ERP.”

"We’ve increased our two-year graduation rate in the last four years from 16% to 19%."

"I think that the most beneficial piece of Ellucian CRM Recruit is the way that we can now communicate easier, quicker, faster, and more accurately with our prospective students."

“We’ve been able to automate a lot of things that have, in the past, been fairly mundane tasks for somebody. Those changes allowed counselors and general admissions staff to focus on recruiting higher caliber students.”

“From an operational standpoint, the real advantage with Ellucian CRM Recruit is we don’t have to write the import for Ellucian Colleague for SAT and ACT scores and applications. It’s all part of the Recruit import. Previously, when the new formats came out, we had to dedicate programmer time to redo all the imports. We don’t have to do that anymore. That saves us about 100 to 120 hours a year.”

“This is what they saw on the screens, and this is the answer that they gave them.”

"Tec21 is revolutionary in the sense that we have included in our curricula a level of flexibility that has never been seen before. A student who joins our institution can change their career path in the second semester or third semester. In order to do that, you need technology to handle all this complexity."

"We were definitely lucky we rolled Recruit out when we did because it is so user-friendly, and it’s web-based. My team had to work from home—everything my recruiters needed was in the cloud. That was huge."

"Because the software is modular, we could prioritise the modules critical to launch while simultaneously developing a holistic, long-term strategy."

"We can’t just look at one or two criteria in student success anymore."

"The partnership with Ellucian surpassed my expectations. I've implemented numerous systems in my career, and Ellucian SIS was one of the smoothest. I attribute that to working through the challenges as a team. Seeing the student system come to life has been especially exciting—it's incredible to know that this implementation will directly impact students' experiences and success."

"Everything we do, we have got to try and do it in a way that maximises an individual student’s time on campus, to really leverage this, and at the same time enable students to take the campus with them and access all the services they need when off-site.”

“The upgrade to Banner 9 - following the move to cloud, was infinitely easier - from our perspective. Without the availability of global resource, we would have been looking at significant downtime for the platform to get those upgrades in place.”
