Our Story
How We Started…
It was in the late 1990s when Vince Norton and Dr. Jean Norris realized something was missing in the world of college admissions. Something big. While there were plenty of consultants specializing in long-range admissions strategies, few offered the kind of practical, hands-on guidance that would impact day-to-day conversions of prospective students. And none of them worked with both proprietary and not-for-profit institutions
So in 1999, Norton Norris Was Born.
With established, successful careers in higher education admissions and marketing, Vince and Jean began offering training and consulting for college admissions, guiding traditional and proprietary schools to measurably improved results. Their experience as senior-level administrators provided admissions teams at schools across the country with a solid foundation and the tools they needed to show results.
