Understand Student Needs
With More Feedback Data
We believe in putting students first and meeting them where they’re at. Brite helps university members support students’ mental health, academics, belongingness, and other barriers by engaging students in a new way that they love, collecting more direct feedback data for any application.
No credit card needed.
Student Feedback Data to Help With:
Find at-risk students who need you most.
Students face unseen silent battles, don’t ask for help, and often make significant decisions based on small circumstances which referrals and flags miss.
With Brite, we proactively identify students in need before the withdrawal survey after hearing directly from the student, and allow the respective department to provide personalized outreach and support, ensuring students get connected with help for success.
Perfect for: Student Success, Student Affairs, Enrollment Management
Using our student-focused app, we collect more feedback data using gamification & incentives. Built by students, for students.
Built while in college at WVU, Brite’s co-founders deeply understood that the only way to engage students was if they saw an ROI.
Using the Brite app, students are rewarded for providing feedback using weekly prize giveaways from the brands they love, which has resulted in students coming back every day to answer questions about their university experience.
This influx in real-time data opens up brand new doors to assist universities with retention initiatives, continuous quality improvements, and more.
We believe in putting students first.
When students succeed, universities thrive.
Our Story
As WVU engineering students, we experienced WVU’s financial crisis and cuts first hand. These came from nationwide doubts about the value of a college degree, and declining enrollment from the demographic cliff.
We set out to help these worrying shifts. Understanding student needs is now more important than ever before, and that's why we created a platform that meets students in the middle, collecting feedback in a way that students love.
