CollegeNET

CollegeNET, Inc. builds on-demand SaaS technologies that help institutions improve efficiency, enhance communication with constituents, and save money. As the inventor of the first automated academic scheduling software, the company today provides college and university scheduling software to institutions worldwide for event and academic scheduling, recruitment and admissions management, instructor and course evaluation, web-based career services for students, cultural learning and college preparation, electronic academic records delivery, and streamlined academic operations. CollegeNET is the creator and publisher of the Social Mobility Index (SMI; socialmobilityindex.org). The SMI measures the extent to which a college or university admits economically disadvantaged students at lower tuition, supports their academic progress through graduation, and prepares them to obtain well-paying jobs. The purpose of the SMI is to recast the competition for "prestige" among institutions so that it drives factors that improve access, affordability, and graduation rate, and thereby advances higher education's contribution to economic mobility. CollegeNET directly supports greater affordability and access to higher education and has awarded more than $2 million in college scholarships to date.
