VITERBO UNIVERSITY JOINS NICHE DIRECT ADMISSIONS PROGRAM FOR 2025

LA CROSSE, Wis. – Viterbo University has announced a partnership with Niche and its direct admissions program as an innovative way to provide real-time acceptance and scholarship offers to students. Based on the information in their Niche profile, high school seniors who meet the criteria for enrolling at Viterbo will immediately be notified when the university wants them to join its incoming class.

“Partnering with Niche is another way to remove barriers in the college search, increase college access, and further improve the ways that we welcome and serve students,” says Brian Weber, interim vice president for enrollment management at Viterbo University. “This partnership puts students first and connects with our core values of hospitality and service. Improving access is important—the world needs more Viterbo graduates. Our 100% placement rate certainly shows just how in demand our graduates are and the strength that a Viterbo degree and student experience carries.”

Direct admissions programs are rapidly expanding across the country and increasing in popularity as colleges seek to provide students and families with a simplified process and to encourage more high school students to pursue higher education. Every year, one in two college-bound seniors creates a profile on Niche, and over 50 million people annually rely on Niche to research and choose their best-fit college.
