Summer Nance

Director of Financial Aid at Limestone University

Matt C.

EVP, Enrollment Services - Higher Education

"Working with Virtue Analytics we have seen our Net Tuition Revenue increase, we have seen our partnership grow along the way, and find opportunities that we didn’t see but data has been able to find in this past year. I strongly encourage you to consider Virtue Analytics and the VIRTUE Platform yourself, it has been a great partnership for us here in Arkansas."

Heather McCowen

Heather McCowen

College Consultant

"I’ve had the pleasure of working with Virtue Analytics on the Top5 Colleges tool, and it has been a significant time-saver in my practice. The tool allows me to compare net price calculators across multiple colleges by entering a student’s information just once, and the accuracy has been excellent. It enables me to provide families with clear, predictive cost insights as we build college lists and discuss affordability. I’ve saved hours outside client meetings and can’t imagine running my practice without it. I highly recommend Virtue Analytics’ Top5 Colleges tool."

Adam Ochwat

Adam Ochwat

High School Principal, CA

"Virtue Analytics is clearly focused on helping students and families. Top5 Colleges is a solid solution that aligns well with what families truly need. What stood out most is the shared mission and genuine care for kids and their families. I value working with teams that bring the same vision, integrity, and heart to their work, and I truly appreciated the time spent with us."

Sophia Taylor

"As a student navigating the college application process, Top5 Colleges made a meaningful difference for me. Even before receiving my award letters, I found the tool extremely helpful. It removed much of the stress of going through multiple financial aid calculators and helped me discover colleges I wouldn’t have considered otherwise—simply because they fit my budget. I appreciated how clean and easy the interface is, the ability to filter by state, and the detailed cost breakdown that clearly shows the out-of-pocket number. Overall, it made the college search feel far more manageable, and I would confidently recommend it to other students and even school counselors."

Ed Recker

Ed Recker

Director, Relationship Management at Sallie Mae

"My first impression of Top5 Colleges was “wow.” It’s an incredibly powerful tool with extensive data that truly empowers both students and counselors. One of the biggest struggles students and families face—something consistently validated by our studies—is understanding how America pays for college, and cost is a major driver in that decision. This tool directly addresses that challenge. I especially appreciate how it allows students to see their academic profile from a merit perspective and understand whether there’s an opportunity to move the needle—whether through improving GPA or increasing ACT or SAT scores. The built-in SAI calculator is incredibly comprehensive yet intuitive, and the platform thoughtfully guides students from high-level decisions like where to study, without even requiring a major upfront. Overall, it’s a fantastic and very well-designed tool."

Virtue Analytics Strategic Enrollment Management Services

We, Virtue Analytics, utilize the power of data and help universities through our strategic enrollment management (SEM) services to maintain the enrollment count under the financial constraints set by university management. Our unique offering helps the student counselors and enrollment managers to identify legitimate inquiries and set priorities for student counselors to make them apply for the university. Leveraging a rich pool of eligible applicants, our application uses machine learning and AI to project optimal grant amounts catering to the merit and need of the students. Our experience with private institutions shows that data-driven financial aid leads to an improved enrollment yield.

Our experience in the domain shows that a timely intervention can reduce student drop-outs. Reducing drop-out rates can not only help the university to maintain its financial health, but it also boosts the overall degree completion rates that have a multi-faceted benefit in student ranking. Our retention model identifies the drop-outs in time and provides an opportunity for intervention to the university counselors. To explore more, speak to our SEM experts:
