Admission Tracker

PEJE is proud to introduce the newly revised and upgraded Admission Tracker, another cutting-edge product in our growing Day School Peer Yardstick™ Suite of Tools, created and implemented in partnership with Measuring Success.

The Admission Tracker will help your school organize your admission process and reach your enrollment goals. The Tracker manages data on all prospective students and families from inquiry to enrollment, using simple software designed to support best practices in admission. The software is user-friendly and accessed online, to help your admission staff easily collect and report data throughout the year. By using the Admission Tracker, your staff saves time and money.

This Tool Will Help You:

  • Track all prospective students quickly and accurately.
  • Ensure timely progression of prospective students through the admission process.
  • Easily access standard reports, graphs, and charts that present the data in a simple and easy-to-understand format so that you can track progress throughout the year.
  • Generate custom reports tailored to meet your school's needs.
  • Generate historical comparisons to plan strategically and align your goals with your current admission activities.
  • Easily download the admission data for the Benchmark Data Collection Form and Report (formerly known as the Yardstick Report).

Accessible Online Format Benefits Include:

  • One central location of the database with access for all authorized users eliminates multiple versions—Perfect for schools that do not have a central file server or those that have multiple campus locations.
  • Online storage of the Admission Tracker protects your data against personal computer failures.
  • Your data is available anywhere you have internet access.
  • System eliminates duplication in data entry and allows all users access to the most current information on each student.
  • Licensed users have immediate access to changes or updates from Measuring Success without having to wait for a future version of the Tool to be released.

Explore the Admission Tracker with our trial account information. Username is admissiontrial@yardsticksuite.org; password is admissiontrial. We've put in some sample records and you are welcome to practice entering data and running reports. Please remember that others also have access to the trial account and the information you enter isn't private for the purposes of the test, so you should only input sample data.
