Mailing and Data Quality Software for Colleges and Universities

Students are one of the fastest growing demographics in the USA. Children of the baby boomers are now in college and even the baby boomers themselves are starting to return to college. The number of college students ages 40 to 64 has jumped by almost 20 percent to nearly 2 million in the past decade. Universities and educational institutions rely on mail-outs to reach these students for marketing, applications, billing and alumni support. College graduates are known to be the most transient demographic on record. The U.S. Postal Service estimates that over 43 million American individuals, families and businesses move each year.

Mailing is a large expense for universities and colleges. Incorrect or undeliverable addresses mean costs go up and responses go down. In fact, postage discounts can be reduced or cancelled by the postal facility if mass mailings include a large number of incorrect addresses.
