During one of the most tumultuous seasons in the life of higher education, Southern New Hampshire University (SNHU) cut their campus tuition in half — and claimed that students could still get the same high-quality education and campus experience, at a radically more affordable price.
On this week’s episode, we talk with Tim Whittum, Associate Vice President of Enrollment Management at SNHU, about the radical ways in which the university is rethinking the modality and flexibility of higher education and what this means for the future of student recruitment.
Tim and Zach posit that schools will need to get much more creative and specific about their value offering in order to stay relevant and competitive. The two also riff on ideas around how schools with predominantly online course offerings may get innovative and launch pseudo-campus environments...perhaps something like a “co-learning” space that is somewhat akin to a “co-working” space?
