Direct Mail Admissions “Search Piece”



Search Piece

Award:

Gold, 2008 Admissions Advertising Awards

Client:

Office of Undergraduate Admissions

Audience:

High-achieving high school students

Purpose:

Pique students’ interest in Texas State

Description:

This self-mailing direct mail piece stands out from the crowd of college mailings thanks to a design that allows it to reveal its contents in an unusual way. As each of four panels is unfolded, the recipient receives messages about the many reasons a high-achieving student should consider Texas State. Nestled inside is a business-reply postcard for the student to return to learn more. The search piece shares the look of the other 2007-08 recruitment materials: a rich metallic gold with maroon accents and the star from the Texas State logo repeated throughout.
