What happens when admissions and advancement stop operating in parallel and start working in partnership? This session explores how independent schools can break down silos and align strategy, processes, and outreach to drive gains in both enrollment and philanthropy. We’ll look at how AI-enabled tools are helping schools surface high-capacity, philanthropic families earlier in the admissions process, and how those insights can be transferred seamlessly across teams to build lasting relationships. We’ll also examine how advancement and admissions can co-design outreach efforts that expand the admissions pipeline with mission-aligned families while simultaneously leveraging those touchpoints to nurture the existing donor pool. Attendees will leave with actionable strategies for enabling low-friction knowledge transfer between teams, building repeatable collaborative workflows, and developing a strategic understanding of how and why advancement and admissions roles are evolving in tandem to support institutional growth.
