Case Study: Bullis School achieves streamlined digital admissions and stronger family engagement with Veracross

How Bullis Reinvented Critical Admissions Workflows with Veracross

Bullis School, an independent college-prep school in Potomac, Maryland with about 900 students, faced major admissions disruptions when COVID-19 closed its campus and kept staff from accessing paper files and in-person assessments. To maintain access and connection with prospective families, Bullis turned to Veracross and its tools—using Veracross Files, the Veracross student portal, and Veracross Composer—to replace paper workflows and in-person touchpoints.

Using Veracross Files Bullis digitized admissions records and granted staff remote access, the Veracross student portal enabled online essay uploads and teacher recommendation collection, and Veracross Composer delivered bi-weekly e-newsletters to showcase campus life; the team also mailed materials to prospects. These changes restored critical admissions operations, improved the applicant experience and staff efficiency, and strengthened outreach—outcomes Bullis School calls so successful the admissions team will keep the new Veracross-enabled workflows going forward.
