Automated CoreCampus Cohort Start Reminders

Every morning, WebRun opens CoreCampus, finds students whose cohort starts within the next 7 days, drafts a text reminder with the orientation date, time, and location in Twilio, and posts admissions a headcount for every upcoming cohort in Slack.

In short

How do I remind incoming students before their cohort start date?

WebRun checks CoreCampus every morning for students whose cohort starts within 7 days and drafts a text reminder with the orientation date, time, and location in Twilio, queued but not sent. It posts admissions a headcount for every upcoming cohort in Slack, so new students get a timely reminder and staff catch under-enrolled cohorts before day one.

  • New students get a timely reminder instead of a missed first day
  • Admissions catches under-enrolled cohorts before the start date, not after
  • The front desk reviews a ready-queued text instead of writing one from scratch

Questions, answered

Will it text students without anyone reviewing it first?

No. WebRun only queues the reminder text in Twilio. The front desk reviews and sends it, so nothing goes to a student's phone unattended.

How does it decide who gets a reminder?

It reads each student's confirmed start date directly from CoreCampus, so only students actually enrolled in a cohort starting within 7 days get queued.

What if a cohort is under-enrolled?

It flags any cohort below its minimum headcount in the Slack report, so admissions can work the waitlist before the start date instead of after.

Put this on autopilot.
