Expert Slate Implementations, Portals, & Consulting

Admissions

Admissions

Undergraduate. Graduate. Professional. Rolling. Selective. Open. You name it, we’ve done it.


implementations

Welcome to Slate! Supercharge your first year with Post-Captain. Inquiry forms, Events, Deliver, Applications - tell us where you want to go and we'll help you get there. We'll be the Dumbledore to your Harry, the Yoda to your Luke, or even the Mary Poppins to your Banks kids, if that's your thing.


Portals

Slate provides unmatched power and flexibility in its Portal Editor. A good portal can completely transform how students and staff interact with your office. Whether you're building an admission staple, like an applicant or admitted student portal, or you've got something a little more creative in mind, Post-Captain can build it.


Marketing

Everyone loves a good email campaign. OK, maybe not everyone, but at Post-Captain we LOVE them. Guide more of your prospects to inquiry, applicant, and deposit with sharp, tailored messaging. Add in some texting and print, segmented message groups, and clear tracking metrics, and you'll love your email campaign, too. 


BRANDING

Nothing lasts forever, and that includes your branding. There will come a time when your Slate instance and email templates need a refresh. Whether it’s a total makeover or just a little nip and tuck, we can help. Va-va-voom!



Configurable Joins

Does this beast really need a separate heading? It’s basically querying, right? Oh no my friend… it’s so much more. We offer hands-on configurable joins trainings for users of all skill levels that can show you how to get more out of queries, AND forms, AND dashboards, AND status portals, AND rules, AND just about everything in Slate.


GENERAL Consulting

Sometimes you just need someone who speaks Slate. Want help training staff or creating documentation? Need a second opinion on your Upload Dataset mappings or Rules Editor? Not sure how to approach your search purchase, or how to add a new dataset and query base? We've got your back.


queries & Reporting

SO. MUCH. DATA. There's (almost) no limit to what you can track in Slate. But how do you... you know, use it? Let us help you take charge of your data with Queries, Reports, and Voyages. Bring your nastiest challenges and leave the SQL to us.


WORKFLOWS

Application review will never be the same again. The workflow editor opens up some amazing possibilities - simultaneous review across multiple offices, department-specific review settings, and secondary evaluations for scholarships or athletics. Want to get fancy? Process student worker applications, college fair invitations, or new student onboarding in a workflow!



AUDITS

We like to think we offer a kinder, gentler audit than the Internal Revenue Service. Stop digging through your old emails and bad documentation to remember how something works or why it was built that way… especially if Slate started labeling that thing “Deprecated.” We’ll comb through your instance, highlight the good and the bad, and assemble a plan you can use to smooth out the rough spots. Yes, we’ll help you execute the plan too. And yes, we will probably ask you if your queries still “spark joy.“


Athletics, alumni, & arts: oh my!

Want to share Slate with other offices on campus? They're already jealous of you for all the fabulous things Slate can do. Time to get them in on the fun! Athletic recruiting, alumni interviewing, arts portfolios, faculty advising - we've seen it all. Let us help you share the wealth with partners across campus.


SEARCH

In ye olden days, student search was something vendors managed for you. Today, Slate empowers you to bring student search completely in house. Whether its personalizing your drip marketing, building custom landing pages, or even helping plan your purchase and engagement strategy in Slate, Post-Captain can help you get student search running in your own instance, on your own terms.
