Adult Student Enrollment Decision Making Priorities

Session Description

What are the most important factors in an adult student’s enrollment decision? What is most important to them as they sit down to select an institution? Decision-making data gathered from recent Aslanian market studies will be presented with an eye on helping attendees understand the criteria that are weighed most heavily -- and not -- in deciding on their institution of choice. These patterns will lead to a discussion on motivation, institutional messaging, and the relative importance of cost, quality, reputation, convenience, and much more.
