Chart a course for financial sustainability

Plan for the financial future of your institution when you combine relevant historical data that enables you to create, review, and monitor multiple long-range financial scenarios. HelioCampus helps you build these powerful financial models so you can inform annual planning or budgeting decisions, pivot quickly if assumptions change, and demonstrate alignment with your strategic plan.

Designed for higher education

Every institution has their own nuances and processes, so you need a tool that provides ultimate flexibility with precision accuracy. We’ve included core higher ed use cases and scenario drivers, like enrollment and tuition planning or institutional staffing, while allowing for maximum customization to suit your needs.

Highly targeted for tighter accuracy

Our scenario drivers focus on actionable decision points, like tuition “sticker” price or college-level staffing plans. Plus we combine four sources of 5-10 years of historical data including student enrollment, tuition, employee payroll, financial statements, or GL accounts to optimize projection accuracy.

Create a plan for multiple outcomes

Once your scenario is created, testing your scenarios is as simple as clicking a button. We enable you to have more data-informed conversations to prepare for changes in program demand, student-to-faculty or student-to-staff shifts, and volatility in external factors like inflation, state appropriations or utility and commodity price hikes.
