What if affordability isn’t just a financial aid strategy, but a positioning strategy? In this episode, we sit down with Nicole Barron, Senior VP of Enrollment Management at Roosevelt University, to unpack the Roosevelt Pledge, a program guaranteeing free tuition for qualifying students. What started as a tuition reset became a clear, compelling promise that now drives nearly 40% of their application pool. Nicole shares how Roosevelt turned complexity into clarity, using financial aid modeling, competitive data, and thoughtful marketing to increase enrollment, improve retention, and grow net tuition revenue all at once.
