Universities are increasingly utilising social media for student recruitment, the most highly used channel for prospective students.

School ratings are a ubiquitous feature of the U.S. educational system.

Hill, Paul; Jochim, Ashley – Center on Reinventing Public Education, 2017
State chiefs have new responsibilities under the Every Student Succeeds Act, but their formal powers are still limited. Despite these constraints, the Center on Reinventing Public Education (CRPE) analysis finds that chiefs can make a difference by wielding their powers strategically, to build coalitions and persuade others. While turnover in the…

Mothkovich, Troy A. – ProQuest LLC, 2018
Most low-income, high-achieving students in the United States neither attend nor apply to selective universities despite research that shows that they are just as likely as their high-income peers to succeed if they do apply to those schools. Despite the fact that many universities have begun offering substantial financial aid packages that would…

This paper proposes a benefit of the doubt (BoD) approach to assess the research performance of 37 public Australian universities based on data from 2015. The primary activities of Higher Education institutions are teaching and research, but the prestige of a university depends mainly on the results of its research activities. The BoD method is…

Getahun, Dawit Asrat; Hammad, Waheed; Robinson-Pant, Anna – Research in Comparative and International Education, 2021
There is a growing body of research on the impact of English-medium publication and associated higher education regimes on knowledge construction.

Gore, Oliver Tafadzwa – Bulgarian Comparative Education Society, 2021
Although engagement of the low-income students increased since the introduction of inclusive policies in the post-apartheid higher education in South Africa, inequality of access, participation and achievement still persists. While focus has been on increasing enrolment and addressing students' concerns in universities, little attention has been…

Winter, Emma; Thompson-Whiteside, Helen – Journal of Marketing for Higher Education, 2017
The fiercely competitive HE market has led HEIs to invest significant resources in building a distinct identity. An HEI's location forms an inherent part of its identity and the uniqueness of location offers an opportunity to differentiate. However there has been limited examination of how location is used by HEIs and little consideration of how…

Rafi, Madeline A. – Journal of International Students, 2018
For more than 1,043,839 international students, the United States is the destination of choice to pursue higher education. Although Chinese students account for almost one in three international students in the U.S., there are many unknowns about the influential factors behind their college decision. This qualitative study explores the…
