How do our license tiers work?
Admissions
We have developed rate tiers for admissions and enrollment offices based on their total number of submitted applications that an institution receives annually. This estimate is for the total annual cost for a single database and license.
Institutions typically elect to implement and support multiple programs independently, such as separating undergraduate and graduate admissions. In such a case, the license costs for each program would be determined by its respective application volume.
< 1,500 — $30,000
1,500 - 7,500 — $50,000
7,500 - 15,000 — $75,000
15,000 - 40,000 — $100,000
40,000 - 60,000 — $125,000
60,000 - 80,000 — $150,000
80,000 - 100,000 — $175,000

Student Success
You are welcome to manage your student success efforts in your existing Slate database on campus at no additional cost.
If a separate license is desired for student success or enrolled student communications only, it is priced at our most affordable license tier, which is $30,000 per year. Each license contains the full service and support offerings of Slate, which include all features and functionality in the license, access to the knowledge base, community forums, community conversations, the dedicated client success team, webinars, Learning Lab, and community events.
Advancement
Rate tiers are based upon their active full-time undergraduate enrollment (FTE), which we have found to be the greatest predictor of the active and contributing alumni base. The license tiers for a separate database for advancement are as follows, with the corresponding annual fees:
< 2,500 — $50,000
2,500-7,500 — $75,000
7,500-15,000 — $100,000
15,000-30,000 — $125,000
30,000-45,000 — $150,000
45,000-60,000 — $175,000
