Background
Countless industries have actively engaged in web services to streamline efficiencies. Banking, travel and retail have not only benefited from improved business practices, but revolutionized the experience for the end user. Higher education is in a critical stage of change with regard to college admissions and the utilization of web services. For six years, ConnectEDU has been fine-tuning a web services model for colleges and universities to modernize the procedures for students, which have been unchanged for decades.
By directly integrating with high school student information systems, ConnectEDU is building the first verified data bridge between secondary schools and colleges. High school guidance counselors now have the ability to send secure admissions documents directly to the college as data points, including electronic transcripts and letters of recommendation. The process that can cost up to $24 per application is now manageable through web services at a fraction of the cost.
When high schools and colleges unite on Connect!, as part of the college application process, students request the transcript delivery; counselors send the transcript; and college admissions officers receive the transcript without the use of paper. Connect! tracks the status throughout the exchange and provides automated receipt once the data is in the college computer system. Besides eliminating paper and mail processing, this modernization reduces errors, minimizes lost documents, saves unprecedented time and cost. With Connect!, colleges streamline procedures and revolutionize how students approach college admissions.
