Prospective students rank an institution’s website as the most useful tool in their enrollment journey. In an increasingly competitive marketplace, a website that converts awareness and interest into action is vital. It’s your number one marketing asset, responsible for meeting audiences’ needs for information in ways that shape perceptions and convey the value of your brand promise.

With more than 20 years of experience designing recruitment-focused websites for higher ed institutions, VisionPoint will work in the trenches with you, building a site that is visually appealing and allows for meaningful, measurable engagement.

Visual Design

We’ll develop strategic, responsible, and accessible design concepts for your homepage, flexible inner page, and any remaining page types.

We’ll bring the website designs to life with clean, well-crafted code focused on accessibility, performance, and technical SEO, finishing with a thorough quality assurance process.

University of Texas at Dallas

Having outgrown their previous site, we partnered with UT Dallas to develop a website that reset their reputation and promoted their personality. The website now shows off the beauty of the campus and created a welcoming sense of place, charming UT Dallas audiences in ways that were as quirky as they were authentic; traits that aligned with UT Dallas’ personality. The user experience is tailored to the needs and user pathways of very specific audiences that make up their prospective student pipeline.
