Everspring and NAGAP's recent survey reveals 76% of GEM professionals are missing enrollment targets. The issue goes beyond tight staffing and budgets—AI has invisibly transformed how students discover programs.

Everspring's 2025 AI Search Trends Report—the first sector-specific analysis using data from 60+ programs—reveals students increasingly rely on AI for educational searches. This shift breaks traditional marketing funnels: website traffic drops, click-throughs vanish, but enrollment opportunities still exist—they're just hidden. The solution requires full-funnel visibility to track students through AI-influenced journeys.

Join enrollment experts Keith Ramsdell, VP Enrollment Management at Ashland University, Rhea Vitalis, VP, Growth Marketing and Rohun Pai, Executive Director, Growth Strategies at Everspring, to learn how forward-thinking institutions gain full-funnel visibility and turn AI disruption into competitive advantage.
