text communication to student applicants
I'm on a call with several scholarship managers, several of whom use foundant and we want to be able to communicate with students via text for reminding them about applications, followups, etc... What a difference that would make!

Separate from CSuite, but you can set up a Google Voice number associated with your work email address and use that to text students (from a number different than your personal cell number). You can text from your computer or the Google Voice app. You will also get an email when a student responds so you don't have to constantly check for notifications.

YES!!! It is almost impossible to get a student to answer a phone call, but they respond to text immediately!

This would be an amazing feature to add! Email or telephoning doesn't always work with this population.
