ABOUT IQAP
Connect and recruit qualified aspiring students using our Instant Qualified Applicant Platform (IQAP), your branded peer-to-peer platform.
Connect and recruit qualified aspiring students using our Instant Qualified Applicant Platform (IQAP), your branded peer-to-peer platform.
IQAP uses bots and natural language AI so that your staff, student ambassadors, alumni and agent counsellors can work productively when advising and helping pre-qualified prospective students with their applications.
IQAP can be used as a custom mobile app available in iOS, Android or as a web app available via a URL. This app works 24/7, speaks several languages and is very efficient at qualifying students. It never gets tiring!
Respond instantaneously
58% of prospective students prefer to use real-time chat at all stages of communication with a university; 73% to make an enquiry. The IQAP bot will respond immediately, increasing student’s satisfaction.
Qualify with bots
IQAP then selectively notifies in real-time via WhatsApp, email or SMS the most suitable staff, counsellor, alumni or student ambassador about enquiries, allowing them to respond immediately from their mobile phones if they wish.
Start applications
IQAP enables advice to be personalised and tailored to each university. Using up-to-date international currencies, IQAP allows formal quotations to be created at the click of a button. IQAP also helps prospective students by providing Gen-Z friendly guidance on uploading documentation required for their particular course application, as well as guidance on how to complete their Statements of Purpose.
Redirect students
Automatically assign your potential students to an agency counsellor in your agent channel or, if you prefer, to a staff member, alumni or student ambassador at your university. Use criteria, such as citizenship or language, to choose the most suitable advisor for your prospective student to connect with.

What's in it for you
Instant Qualified Applicant Platform (IQAP)
Reach more students
The average email open rate should be between 15-25%. Compare this to the open rate via messenger apps - 98%! Imagine getting almost all of your potential students to look at what you are offering. This has the capacity to create a much larger pool from conversion to acceptance than e-mail could ever come close to.
Reward good advisors
Your own recruiters, student ambassadors, alumni, education agents or school advisors are at the core of your student recruitment strategy. IQAP enables you to work selectively with them in a way that rewards them with qualified prospective students. This means they are more productive in assisting prospective students with applications for your university.
Use your brand
The IQAP platform will be hosted in our domain, e.g. provider.sofiri.com or a domain of your preference, e.g. chat.provider.edu It can also be installed in your existing Facebook Messenger account or we can create a complete new one, e.g. m.me/providerbot. Whichever you choose, it is your brand at all times that prospective students will see.
Receive full support
Our online training and assistance guarantees that your staff, student ambassadors, alumni and agents can use the IQAP platform to best effect. The Sofiri team will service them to boost productivity and, in doing so, improve your recruitment numbers. Use our marketing support campaign assistance to reach more aspiring students and generate more qualified prospective students for your agents to support.
