Sentinel 360 in Context

We already use a product that handles enrollment fraud. How is Sentinel 360 different?

Most enrollment fraud tools work within a single institution's data at the application stage. They can evaluate whether an individual's enrollment behavior appears questionable on their own campus, but they cannot see what that individual is doing across the broader higher education system. Sentinel 360 is built on the Clearinghouse's nationwide enrollment network — covering 97% of currently enrolled postsecondary students across more than 130 million enrollment records. Enrollment patterns involving the same individual at multiple institutions are only visible at the network level. That's the intelligence layer Sentinel 360 adds, and it's one no campus-level tool can provide.
