Anyone have examples of .edu mobile sites that are targeted to the prospective student audience.  I am working on a white paper which I will share when it's complete.

Yep, we just launched http://goto.nichols.edu

We are working on a mobile freindly version of our 'first contact' form that looks very similar to the one from Nichols. The main purpose of our form is to make it easier to capture information on the spot at recruiting events.

That is a cool idea.  Will you have a QR code to get them there?  A text message to get them there?  Or simply ask them to type in the URL?

Claudia - I really like the design.. very simple and elegant.  Question for you.. things like date of birth and sports info.. do you really need those to create an inquiry record?  I have seen schools try to limit the questions they ask on both the desktop sites and mobile sites to encourage more inquiries.

Another question - how does a prospective student find the site?  I went to your www site and was not redirected and didnt see a link?  thanks!

David,

Was the whitepaper you mentioned ever developed?

Could I get a copy of it?

Thanks

Hi Terry - Yes.. sorry about that I forgot to post it here.  White paper: Leading Strategies for Mobile Communications in Higher...

Enjoy!
