This week on EDU Checkup I reviewed three sites by request. A few recent redesigns and they just wanted to know how they did. No one failed so I would say they are on the right track. Each have their own needs but information quality was a big deal on all three, Bellevue University knocked it out of the park while Asbury College and North Carolina Central University fell very short. Without information you are going to loose users fast. Think about a prospective student comes into your admissions office and asks what it takes to get a degree in social work and the person just gives them the run around and the student leaves confused. You don’t want that to happen to your prospective students online.
