Over the last five years, we’ve met with leaders at hundreds of small colleges and universities and one of the most consistent challenges we hear is the need to grow while reducing costs. In today’s market, it’s critical for institutions to flexibly manage their academic program portfolio in a financially sustainable way while expanding in cutting-edge fields like AI, Cybersecurity, and Data Science that will grow enrollment.
In response, we’re making it more affordable to add and grow a portfolio of programs by making a pricing adjustment for our undergraduate offerings.
Our most effective partners are leveraging Rize to offer bundles of programs that grow over time. These partners are focused on growth, innovation, and an increasingly career-aligned academic portfolio as key messaging themes to students. Broader portfolios help institutions retain existing students, grow net new enrollment, and expand your enrollment funnel with an innovative and market-responsive program portfolio that attracts and engages learners.
Program pricing will now be structured into four tiers, including a new all-access offering. As your institution adds more programs, the cost of each individual program decreases and you gain access to premium services. For roughly the cost of a full-time hire, the all-access tier gives you access to all 25 subjects, including any new offerings we bring to market.
This makes it more affordable to implement Rize in a way that leads to the greatest success for your institution. Explore our ROI calculator to generate your estimated annual partnership margin after leveraging the Rize model for undergraduate programs or set-up a call to discuss it live.
