Overview

Amidst the many failed attempts throughout higher education to reduce overall sticker price, Ashland University is now enjoying a second successful year of significant tuition reduction. Come learn how this mid-sized private institution in north-central Ohio successfully carried out a $10,000 sticker price reduction by:

  • Closely examining their market position
  • Designing accurate financial models to account for the impact of tuition reduction
  • Aligning financial aid packages with new tuition prices
  • Utilizing appropriate marketing tactics with prospective and current students.

Join us for a webcast led by chief administrators from Ashland University and discover how their successful approaches to these challenges can inform your own tuition reduction strategies.

Who should attend?

Based on the obvious financial and enrollment implications of tuition resetting, we strongly encourage representatives from finance, financial aid, enrollment management, and admissions to attend. In addition, a robust institutional research department can benefit from this conversation.
