Boshu is revolutionizing US college admissions. We bring offers of admission without students needing to apply.
We are seeking an intern to assist us in developing our brand and building out a network of students.
The focus for the intern will be marketing, with an emphasis on social media.
At Boshu, once you join, we do all the work. Through our network of hundreds of colleges, we bring you offers of admission, including a firm price to attend and any available scholarships.
And its 100% free?
How is this possible? For decades colleges have been recruiting top prospects in the big revenue sports like basketball and football. If you can dunk a basketball or play linebacker, they'll figure out how to find you. Now we bring this same process to regular students.
Boshu works today for three reasons:
1. Declining enrollments mean there aren't as many high school graduates choosing college as compared to 20 years ago so students are more in demand
2. Sky-high tuition increases and huge student loans have made college too expensive for many families
3. Colleges now have to compete against shorter and less-expensive alternative career pathways
- What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?
-
By the end of the project, students should demonstrate have successfully implemented a digital marketing strategy and assisted in rolling out an advertising campaign.
