Case Study: National College Access Network boosts student engagement with Signal Vine

NCAN Nudging Students to Beat Summer Melt

National College Access Network worked to improve student engagement and timely communication across the college access journey, where reaching prospective and current students with the right information at the right time is critical. To support that challenge, it used Signal Vine’s texting platform, now called Modern Campus Message, to deliver personalized, two-way messages that keep students informed and encourage action.

Signal Vine implemented automated and data-driven text messaging campaigns for reminders, deadlines, financial aid updates, and other student milestones, while still allowing staff to hold real conversations when needed. The solution helped National College Access Network streamline outreach, reduce administrative effort, and strengthen student connections, supporting better engagement and success outcomes through more timely and personalized communication.
