Admissions Officer tools & features

Sign up (it's free)!

What are some of the features and tools that you'll get with Zinch? Below is a quick overview of every admissions officer feature. Be sure to click on the thumbnail image to see a bigger screenshot of that feature.

The Wizards

Wizards are essentially dymanic folders (set by criteria you define) that grow as the database grows. Wizards can be setup so that specific actions (sending specific messages, exporting data, inviting to private forums) can automagically occur, even when you aren't logged in. Ta dah!

The Love

Help students feel the love from your institution through Zinch’s own communication and messaging tool. It is fast, easy, and effective as it's on a platform that students embrace (the web). It also saves trees and money on postage and printing, as well as dramatically reduces your chance of contracting envelope glue poisoning. (note: the screenshot is the view of how students read your messages)

Export Student Data

Not only does Zinch provide fresh, new ways to communicate, we also bolster your existing efforts. Our export feature allows you to add students from the Zinch database to your traditional recruiting initiatives (parents still like the glossy brochures). Also, you can tag and track students internally by exporting the needed information.

Browse through student profiles

Not every admissions officer has the time for this, but if you want you can browse through profiles and get a feel for the different students on Zinch.

College Profiles

Showcase your school to the thousands of students that visit Zinch each day. Through your in-depth college profile, students can learn all about your school to see if it might be a good fit for them. We even offer real-time editing for your convenience/accuracy.

Shout Outs

Students can reach out and show interest in specific colleges through the "Shout Out." Yup, warm leads. Respond to your shout outs and let Zinch work for you! (note: the screenshot is how the students view it. The way you'll see it is through your wizards)

The Word

Interact and communicate with students in a forum-like setting. You can either invite students to private forums or speak with them on your college forum. It's a great place to tell students about your school and answer their questions.
