Get clarity and support for your investment in Anthology Student.

What Ellucian’s acquisition of Anthology Student means for your institution’s roadmap, team, and long-term planning may not be clear. Deer Brook and HigherEdBPO are here to help you understand your options.

Our mission is to make you successful.

When Ellucian acquired Anthology's Student Information System and Finance platforms, it marked the beginning of a new chapter for more than 250 institutions. Ellucian has committed to supporting Anthology Student, but what institutions can realistically expect in terms of future enhancements and product investment remains unclear.

For institutions that are mid-implementation, actively running Anthology, or maintaining a legacy on-premise CampusNexus environment, that uncertainty carries real operational weight. Support response times, system stability, integration continuity, and staffing for your SIS environment are real concerns and day-to-day realities your team is managing right now. Decisions made over the next 12 to 18 months will have lasting consequences.

Deer Brook Consulting and HigherEdBPO have partnered specifically to serve institutions navigating this moment. Together we bring former Anthology development experience, higher education operational expertise, and technical managed services capabilities that you can't find under one roof.

We don't steer you towards a predetermined outcome. We're going to make sure you have the support, information, and options you need to make the right decision for your institution. Our mission is to make you successful.
