Tudor Collegiate Strategies has partnered with more than 120 different college and university admission and MarComm teams. We’ve trained their staff and helped them take a more student-centered, personalized approach to their enrollment communications, as well as other recruitment activities.
Check out what some of the schools we’ve partnered with have to say…
Jeremy and the TCS team have challenged us to reframe the way we approach communication with students, families, and school counselors. They have helped us craft a relational communication strategy that is true to our institutional identity. It has transformed our interactions with students and driven us to record enrollment. They are truly a partner in that they are responsive to our feedback and available to any of our staff to talk through everything from drip marketing strategies to staff burnout. The whole admission team knows Jeremy, has his cell phone number, and knows that he’s available to them when needed. It’s about relationships and that’s what TCS is all about.

I’ve been reading Jeremy’s newsletter for years, and after sharing dozens of articles with our team I thought it was time that they were able to work with him in person. The response from our Admissions Counselors has been amazing. Jeremy has a unique ability to make difficult topics fun to discuss and is able to bring the best out of each member of our team. In addition to the group sessions, his one-on-one conversations with our team members have helped each person grow and allowed us to identify opportunities for additional coaching and training. It’s rare that something makes everyone happy. Our multiple workshops with TCS and Jeremy has certainly been one of those things.

Working with TCS and Jeremy has been a game changer. They inspired us to take a more audience-centered approach to our enrollment marketing and communications strategies and the effort has been well worth it. We can see in our data that it played a big role in enrolling our largest freshman class ever.
Allison Turcio Assistant V.P. for Enrollment and Marketing Siena College
Working with Tudor Collegiate Strategies has been a huge benefit to our Admissions operation. With a limited staff, finding the time to write all the communications we needed to develop personal relationships with our students was impossible. The monthly communications we receive are easy to incorporate and they consistently produce conversations for our counselors. TCS really understands who we are, and they help us explain how our student experience is different. We often hear from students and especially parents how much they appreciate the time and attention we give them through our communications. Everyone feels they are receiving a very personal touch.

Our two-day workshop with Jeremy set the course for the next two years of our recruitment efforts. Our team came away with practical activities to help with drafting emails, making phone calls, creating an elevator pitch, and much more. The workshop also boosted team morale, which is always a plus! To this day, when I have 1on1 meetings with team members, some will inevitable say, “I do this because Jeremy said…” The impact of the workshop is obviously still being felt and will continue to be felt for a long time to come!
Kenton Hargis Senior Director of Admission University of Evansville
I was beyond excited when our leadership team agreed to host Jeremy for an admissions workshop with our staff. For the past couple of years I have been an avid reader of his newsletter. More often than not, I would find myself sharing his articles during our weekly staff meetings to encourage discussion amongst the admissions counselors on ways we could improve our recruitment efforts. Jeremy spent two days with us working through best practices and strategies to improve our recruitment methods – everything from crafting effective emails, planning on-campus events, and most importantly, understanding today’s students.
Megan Thomas Assistant Director of Admissions The University of Mississippi
Our virtual workshop with TCS helped my staff advance in their understanding of not only how to recruit students, but also in terms of how to do it efficiently. Even after 15 years in enrollment management, Jeremy kept my full attention with his energy and applicable ideas. We also had two Admissions Advisors whose first two days on the job were our days in training, and they gained so much knowledge that has allowed them to hit ground running with confidence.
Andy Johnson Director of Admissions University of Arkansas-Fort Smith
Our team has worked with Tudor Collegiate Strategies two straight years and have been thrilled with the take-away’s each time! With our institution’s emphasis on engaging and building stronger rapport with prospective students and families, both the trainings and communication audit have provided the team with data driven strategies they can immediately implement to help them be more student-centered. Jeremy has done a tremendous job empowering the team with tools to be successful in their daily work, without the need for additional resources. As a leader, it has been rewarding to see the renewed energy from the team following the workshops and hearing about successful implementation of the strategies.

Having seen the added value of bringing TCS to Baldwin Wallace for an on-site admission counselor training session, BW subsequently partnered with them to also assist with efforts to write and edit recruitment materials. Over the course of a year, TCS produced or updated roughly 85 emails and print items. Many of the TCS edits and rewrites brought a counselor voice into the communication items, helping to spur engagement with prospective students. I found the partnership to be incredibly valuable, providing short-term lift as well as enhancing BW’s long-term capacity to improve our external messaging.
