We've texted our student for the past 3 years through a third-party integration our scholarship software developer found. It wasn't difficult or expensive to add it to our program. Even though we are switching to SLM this year, the absence of texting feels like we are going backwards and I am concerned about losing students.
We text students to: remind about deadlines, notify if we add a scholarship after they have submiited, reminders for follow-ups and to generally create interest.

I could see us sending in excess of 1,000 messages per year.
* 1-2 texts to students about opps they may be eligible for
* 1-2 texts to students reminding them of the deadline
* 1-2 texts to awarded students for follow-up information
* texts to reviewers
@ 400+ applicants annually, and 200 awardees, we would probably approach 2,000 texts
Hope this helps!
