“I was expecting to see an incremental improvement in data capture and this was much, much more,” said David Mason, Information Technology Coordinator for California Polytechnic State University, referring to Perceptive Intelligent Capture for Transcripts. “The fact that it can not only capture what’s on the transcript, but also pull back additional information from other source systems to complete the record, makes it a very powerful tool for the admissions process.”

“Sorting through volumes of incoming transcripts to find the best candidates is challenging, and having incomplete information about a candidate’s high school or college experience means admissions directors often make decisions without seeing the whole picture,” said Brian Anderson, Chief Technology Officer, Perceptive Software. “With Perceptive Intelligent Capture for Transcripts, admissions professionals can move from speculation and guesswork to fact-based decisions, to recruit the best candidates from the largest possible candidate pool.

“Perceptive Intelligent Capture for Transcripts is another example of a solution that connects unstructured printed and digital information across the enterprise, in this case providing immediate value for our customers in the higher education space,” said Anderson.
