"1 on 1 counselor appointments and small group visits are extremely valuable for our team to identify the best fit students and build relationships with counselors. I encourage all high school guidance counselors to help us by providing visit availability in the Cialfo platform along with any other information regarding what they are looking for in a university visit. We are more than happy to cater our visits or presentations to better fit the needs of each school and community, whether that is in person or virtual."

“It's sometimes very hard to figure out the success rate [of recruitment initiatives]. But for Cialfo with this tool [Higher Ed Insights], it’s much easier for the institution to figure out the success rate.”
Dr. Daniel Saud
Director of International Programs, Admissions, Recruitment & Marketing, Washington State University
"We are excited to partner with Cialfo in increasing higher education access to students across the globe.

Our partnership with Cialfo allows us to share the Coug spirit with 100+ countries and inspire future Cougs."

"Cialfo's customer support, professional development, and dedication to non-stop product improvement have not only made my work easier, but also have made it easier for our whole counseling team to elevate our counseling program. This is especially visible in the application results at our school."
Megan Mankerian-Stem
Director of International Enrollment Office of Undergraduate Admissions, Creighton University
"I love using College Visits as it’s a great way to really make the most of my travels this fall. It’s incredibly helpful to see the available dates and times for each school, as well as learn who’s moved schools during the pandemic! As recruiters start to hit the road again, it’s a great transition back into creating robust schedules and really making sure that we are supporting as many schools and students as possible while in country."
Nahid Afshan
Head of Admissions, BITS Pilani Dubai Campus
"Cialfo certainly has an impressive network of schools across various countries and is increasingly perceived as a very student-friendly virtual platform by schools, to identify and shortlist the universities and various undergraduate programmes of the students’ interest. So in these challenging times, when we are unable to meet or connect with the schools physically, this seems to be the perfect virtual solution to connect with schools and students across the globe."

Guidance Counsellor, The Cathedral and John Connon School, Mumbai
“Direct Apply is an amazing tool, and it’s great that you have individual advisors walking students through the process. It just gives the students and us confidence in the product. Direct Apply makes things so efficient in terms of completing the application — student details are pre-populated from the information they’ve filled in on Cialfo.”
“It's the first time that we are engaging with live data and are able to drill into specific data that can help us benchmark against our peer institutions.”
