Case Study
Summary
Curtin University of Technology needed to find a way to get more school leaver students to put Curtin down as their first choice for tertiary education. Research showed that these students were overwhelmed by Year 12 and disengaged from traditional university communications. This led to the creation of The Box© - a category-changing, digital tool to help students with the transition to university. The Box© helped Curtin to reverse a two year decline in market share of school leaver first preferences, double its market share growth objective and close the gap on its major competitor by 5.35 percentage points.
