It was her belief that the key to improving RSC's admissions results was to improve the user experience of their admissions application system.  This drove them to select our [candidate application solution](https://info.mutarainc.com/product-admissions-candidate).  At the beginning of February, RSC flipped the switch on their new online application. ## 8 weeks in:  A dramatic improvement Here are a few statistics from the presentation that highlight the impact of improving the candidate's user experience on admissions. ![33 percent increase in submitted applications](https://blog.mutarainc.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Canva%20images/33%20percent%20increase%20in%20submitted%20applications.png?width=300&name=33%20percent%20increase%20in%20submitted%20applications.png) Since early February, Rose State College has seen a 33% increase in the number of applications competed and submitted compared to the same time period last year. --- ![75 percent reduction in effort to complete application](https://blog.mutarainc.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Canva%20images/75%20percent%20reduction%20in%20effort%20to%20complete%20application.png?width=300&name=75%20percent%20reduction%20in%20effort%20to%20complete%20application.png) Prior to go-live, the average estimated time to complete and submit an application by students was in excess of 45 minutes.  With the new system, the average time is under 12 minutes. --- ![Metric Chart Images-2](https://blog.mutarainc.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Metric%20Chart%20Images-2.png?width=300&name=Metric%20Chart%20Images-2.png) RSC's prior system did not work on mobile devices.  With the ability to enter and submit any application without a computer, RSC recruiting sessions now include time for prospective students to complete and submit an application through their phones. ## Learn More Want to learn more about this product?  [Click here for more information](https://info.mutarainc.com/product-admissions-candidate) [Get in touch](https://blog.mutarainc.com/increase-admissions-by-33-percent-with-mutara-candidate-application#schudele-demo) ## Related Articles [![Mobile and Desktop screenshots of residency user experience](https://blog.mutarainc.com/hubfs/Residency%20Screenshots.png)](https://blog.mutarainc.com/reduce-residency-processing-by-80-with-mutaras-residency-solution) [Higher Education](https://blog.mutarainc.com/tag/higher-education) [Enabling Technology](https://blog.mutarainc.com/tag/enabling-technology) [Best practices](https://blog.mutarainc.com/tag/best-practices) [User experience](https://blog.mutarainc.com/tag/user-experience) ### [Reduce Residency Processing by 80% with Mutara's Residency Solution](https://blog.mutarainc.com/reduce-residency-processing-by-80-with-mutaras-residency-solution) Most enrollment leaders struggle with labor-intensive and error-prone qualification processes.
