"Watermark helps us keep the students we've worked so hard to recruit and see them across the finish line, which in turn improves the bottom line of the college."

Pamela Madden
Director of Retention

"Everything was siloed in our college... no one really had access to everything. With Watermark, we were able to pull everything into one location, which gives faculty, staff, advisors, and leadership the same tool. They can see everything holistically."

"It is so nice to finally have one place to house all of this information, I can't tell you. It's like night and day. We love it."
