701am for Higher Ed / For universities, colleges & online programs

Be the program students find first.

Applicants now ask ChatGPT and Google “what’s the best program for X” months before they ever request information. 701am makes your program the answer — with the rankings, outcomes data, and earned coverage that drive AI citations, search visibility, and enrollment. Built by a team that’s spent a decade in education visibility.

Most applicants now shortlist programs via AI and search before they ever inquire
The discovery problem

Students choose from a shortlist built before you knew they existed.
701am gets you on it.

Enrollment now begins with a search and an AI answer, months before an inquiry form. If your program isn’t in the “best online MBA” list ChatGPT recites, or the rankings Google surfaces, you’re invisible at the exact moment the decision narrows. 701am earns the rankings, the data stories, and the third-party coverage that put you on the shortlist — compounding season over season instead of resetting every cycle.

The landscape

How programs get discovered now.

Generic PR treats every client the same. 701am works the channels that actually confer credibility in higher ed.

Rankings & “best of” lists

The ranking sites and “best program” round-ups applicants check first — and that AI models quote verbatim.

AI asks: “best [degree] program?”

Outcomes & ROI data

Salary outcomes, completion rates, ROI studies — the numbers that earn coverage and that applicants actually weigh.

Cited as the program stat

Higher-ed & regional press

Inside Higher Ed, EdSurge, and the regional outlets that confer legitimacy on a program or institution.

Why us, for enrollment

We’ve spent a decade in education visibility.

This isn’t a vertical we bolted on. It’s where 701am’s team has lived for years — and it shows in how the engine thinks about enrollment.

We understand rankings as a channel — how “best program” lists form, who reads them, and how AI now repeats them.
We know which outcomes data earns coverage — salary lift, completion, ROI — because we’ve built the studies that landed it.
We build around the application calendar, not a generic content cadence — visibility timed to when applicants actually decide.
