How can we support you?
We have developed products and tools to offer support across the higher education sector. We can help you understand what students want and work with you to shape your student experience and market strategies around the student voice.
We can help you to understand student sentiment. Our sector insights can answer questions such as ‘What makes you unique?’, 'What impact does the living environment have on the overall university experience? and so much more.
The ability to position your brand based on 'fit' and 'feel' can sometimes feel intangible but by amplifying your students' voice we can support you in getting it right. Our Repetitional Marketing tools allow you to bring your brand voice to life. Respond to reviews and help students understand ‘Does this university get me?’ ‘Will I fit in here’? Or use our Review API to embed reviews onto your own website and build trust with potential students.
Our dataset includes all private PBSA, all University owned halls of residence and all part and fully nominated buildings. We collate live pricing for all room types, all tenancy types, all incentives and availability status and we keep that up-to-date every single week. Our partners are able to access a reliable comprehensive dataset to make data-led decisions on critical business questions. We then combine this data with the rich qualitative and quantitative data that comes through our student reviews which provides our partners with a feedback loop to benchmark portfolios against similar properties.
We list every single purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) and university-owned hall in the UK and update their price and availability weekly. Our league tables are based solely on verified student reviews. Our dashboard tool allows accommodation providers to get notified of new reviews, respond to existing reviews and questions and get insight into the experience of tenants.
The StudentCrowd platform acts as a single source of truth for students who are both at the beginning of their journey through providing an information resource but also at the stage where students are making the all important choice on which offer to accept. By enhancing your profile on StudentCrowd using tools such as pinned banners, call to actions and embedded video content you can enable researching students to understand what being part of your community could mean for them.
