Pricing for Higher Education
and Educational Institutions

Higher Education and Educational Institutions:
Increase Performance Through Improved Pricing Strategy

Prior to COVID-19, educational institutions still had strong headwinds in front of them. These conditions have worsened by the pandemic. Recognizing the elements that are deemed most important to prospective students is imperative to developing effective marketing strategies and appropriate prices, especially in these challenging times. Our research shows that students weigh other costs and benefits more heavily than tuition fees when making their decision.

At Pricing Solutions, we have extensive experience in transforming higher educational institutions of all kinds to solve strategic problems such as performance improvement, operational excellence, cost management and reduction, growth strategy, and tuition pricing. Our team uses a focused and personalized approach to research, considering existing assumptions alongside gathered information to create a data-driven, custom pricing strategy that works. We help education institutions realize their true value and potential within their respective markets, providing them with insider insights and informed guidance to optimize their pricing strategies.

Tuition Pricing : Case Study

The Challenge
Our client is a top-100 international university and established an operating presence in the Middle East in 2018. Competition amongst the organizations within the Middle Eastern market is divided into two key groups:

  1. Branch campus operations (i.e. substantial footprint)
  2. Satellite operations (i.e. smaller footprint)

The institutions’ objectives were to:

  1. Gain a greater understanding of the application process for prospective candidates in the Middle Eastern market.
  2. Understand the extent to which course price influences an applicant’s decision-making process.
  3. How does the institutions’ offering compare to the competition?
