As part of a partnership between the University of Arizona and Hobsons, colleges and universities in Arizona can get a break on pricing for the company's recruitment, admissions, application, and enrollment tools.

In January, Hobsons worked with the Tucson-based university to implement enrollment management technology. The company's flagship product, EMT Connect CRM, helps institutions to build, automate, and execute admissions communication plans in one place; track results with real-time reporting features; and use e-mail, direct mail, or text messages to interact with prospective students. All Hobsons EMT products for social networking and instant chat, for example, feed information directly into EMT Connect.
