TLDW: Unlocking Visits+ Premium Webinar

TLDW: Unlocking Visits+ Premium Webinar
All About Visits+ Premium Webinar Recap | Scoir
6:57

Missed our July 24th webinar, Unlocking Visits+ Premium, where we introduced the enhanced Visits+ platform and offered a sneak peek at Visits+ Premium features? Here’s everything you need to know in about 7 minutes.

A Data-First Approach

The most significant change in Visits+ is the shift from a map-first to a data-table-first experience. Instead of landing on the familiar map view, users now start with a comprehensive data table that showcases the wealth of information available behind each high school (even for free Visits+ users).

This strategic change accomplishes two things:

  1. Immediate visibility into the data-driven decision-making possibilities
  2. Natural progression toward the new robust premium features

No worries! The map isn't gone—it's even better now: smoother, more responsive, and easier to visually understand.

 

Enhanced Filtering

The limited top-bar filters have been replaced with a comprehensive side panel that works seamlessly across both data table and map views.

Key improvements include:

  • Location-based filtering: More granular geographic targeting
  • School characteristics: Religious affiliation, Title I eligibility
  • Visit logistics: Availability dates, visit types (in-person or virtual)
  • Cross-view consistency: Filters applied in map view carry over to the data table and vice versa

Looking for additional filtering power? We've got it! Scroll down to see what Visits+ Premium unlocks.

 

Visits Types & Multi-Visit Support

Visits+ includes several features that streamline visit scheduling:

  • College Fair Designation: High schools can now designate multi-visit slots specifically as college fairs, giving colleges a better context for what to expect
  • Flexible Visit Formats: Clear indicators for in-person (location icon), virtual (camera icon), and college choice (your preference) visits
  • Multi-Visit Slots: See exactly how many spots remain when multiple colleges can visit simultaneously
  • Direct Messaging: Contact schools that don't have availability posted yet


Visits+ Premium

Where the Real Power Lives

While the standard Visits+ experience gives you a stronger foundation for planning, Visits+ Premium unlocks a powerful set of tools that take your recruitment strategy to the next level.

 

Advanced Data Filters

Premium users unlock sophisticated filtering capabilities, including:

  • Student demographics at the high school level
  • Geographic precision with geomarket targeting
  • Scoir engagement metrics (more on this below)
  • Socioeconomic indicators like free/reduced lunch percentages

Saved Views & Custom Controls

Visits+ Premium lets you create and save personalized views tailored to your recruitment strategy.

 

What's a Saved View?  A Saved View is a snapshot of your filtered search and column layout, so you can return to it anytime without reapplying filters or rearranging data.

 

Here are a few ways you might use saved views:

  • Territory work: Save a view with filters for a specific region or counselor
  • Travel planning: Build a view with schools available for visits during certain dates
  • Everyday efficiency: Save frequently used searches to cut down on repetitive filtering

You can also customize your table columns to show only the data points that matter most to you, whether that's engagement metrics, school characteristics, or visit availability.

 

Scoir Engagement Data: The Game Changer

Perhaps the most exciting premium feature is access to student engagement data from Scoir:

  • Current Student Inquiries: Students (grades 9-12) who have followed your institution or indicated intent to apply
  • Last Cycle Senior Inquiries: Historical snapshot of senior-year engagement for benchmarking
  • Promoter Schools: High schools where counselors are actively suggesting your institution to students

With this Scoir engagement data at your fingertips, you can easily:

  • Focus your efforts on schools where counselors are already promoting your college
  • Spot missed opportunities at schools with strong student interest but no counselor promotion
  • Make smarter decisions by combining engagement data with other filters like location or demographics
Some colleges are surprised to see really big feeder schools where the school counselor is not designated as a promoter school. But that might mean students are finding you on their own.

 

Seamless CRM Integration

Visits+ Premium users can export any saved view as a CSV file for import into their CRM (like Slate). This enables: 

  • Enhanced organization records with Scoir high school data as custom fields

  • Strategic trip planning using Scoir engagement alongside your historical funnel data
  • Future integrations for seamless data flow between Scoir and Slate
At minimum, marking schools as "Scoir schools" in your CRM gives your team instant visibility into which scheduling platform they use for visits.

 

Real-World Scenarios

Still unsure how you'd use Visits+ Premium in your day-to-day workflow? Here are three ways teams are using Visits+ Premium to work smarter:

  1. Territory Management: Filter by specific geomarkets (e.g., "Massachusetts 06 and 08") and save as a custom view for consistent territory work.
  2. Travel Planning: Search for schools with visit availability during specific travel dates in key geographic areas, then save your view with a custom name (e.g., "Philly Visits List").
  3. Strategic Outreach: Combine rural designation with Title I eligibility and engagement data to identify underserved populations showing interest in your institution.


What's Next? 

This is just the tip of the iceberg. Scoir has much more data than what we've presented in this first release.

The Scoir product team is working with Visits+ Premium Pioneer colleges to identify the next wave of data points to introduce, ensuring new features directly support real recruitment workflows.

Future development ideas include:

  • Additional demographic and engagement data points
  • Enhanced Slate integration for seamless visit management
  • Automated data syncing between platforms


Ready to Explore?

Whether you're curious about the always-free Visits+ or ready to unlock early access to premium features, the new platform offers a more strategic, data-driven approach to high school visit planning. The combination of enhanced filtering, engagement insights, and CRM integration transforms visit planning from a logistical task into a strategic recruitment advantage.
