WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT US

“I can’t think of anyone better to trust surrounding financial aid than Mission Enrollment! Working with them means I can devote even more time to prospective families knowing very well that the evaluation of our financial aid applicants is in the care of the trusted expert!”

David Lazo, Director of Advancement & Enrollment Management, Bentley School (CA)

“Mission Enrollment is a dynamo of data! They can take any strategic initiative and put together data to back up your vision. Most financial aid administrators don’t have time or expertise to accomplish strong data-driven reports for the board or head of school. Mission Enrollment is just the force of nature you need to get the job done—from file calculations to marketing to data presentations to brainstorming. They love financial aid, so they’re ever curious, creative and committed.”

Eileen Powers, Director of Financial Aid & Public Partnerships, Campbell Hall (CA)

“Mission Enrollment brings both ‘head’ and ‘heart’ to the business of financial aid. They have an amazing ability to identify and analyze data to help schools understand their constituents and make informed decisions. At the same time, they never forget that there are deserving students—real human beings—at the end of each financial aid decision. They ‘get’ financial aid like no one I have ever met, combining years of knowledge on the school-side with the firsthand experience of an independent-school parent and board member. There is no question Mission Enrollment has made an immeasurable impact on the development of our financial aid program.”

Juli Baldwin, Director of Financial Aid, Parish Episcopal School (TX)

“Mission Enrollment is a data queen! They know data and have an incredible passion for all things financial aid. When you’re looking for national or local trends, Mission Enrollment is always able to produce the right information for your report, and they bring 150% to all that they do.”

Carinne Meyn Barker, Director of Enrollment Management, St. Matthew’s Parish School (CA)
