Salesforce Experience Cloud provides a flexible framework for building portals in higher education. However, institutions often ask what types of portals they can actually deliver.
The answer depends on your admissions and enrollment needs. As a result, institutions can create a range of portal experiences tailored to different users.
Applicant Portals
Applicant portals are the most common use case. For example, institutions use them to:
- Allow applicants to submit applications
- Track application status
- Upload required documents
- Receive updates and communications
Because of this, applicant portals improve both transparency and engagement throughout the admissions process.
Student Portals
Student portals support enrolled students after admission. In addition, they provide access to:
- Academic information
- Enrollment status
- Communication and updates
- Required next steps
As a result, institutions can continue engagement beyond the admissions cycle.
Continuing Education Portals
Continuing education programs often require a different experience. For instance, users may browse courses before identifying themselves.
These portals can:
- Display course catalogs
- Support registration and checkout
- Provide flexible enrollment experiences
Because of this, institutions can support non-traditional learners more effectively.
Event and Engagement Portals
Institutions also use portals to manage events and engagement. For example, portals can support:
- Campus visits and tours
- Event registration and scheduling
- Personalized itineraries
As a result, institutions improve how they connect with prospective students.
