# From Notification to Action: How USF Delivered Refunds Two Weeks Faster

![USF-Case-Study-Image](https://go.modolabs.com/hubfs/USF-Case-Study-Image.jpg "USF-Case-Study-Image")

[Download the Full Case Study](https://go.modolabs.com/hubfs/USF%20Case%20Study.pdf)

## Targeted, in-platform campaigns that drive real student action, without adding noise

At the University of South Florida, the challenge wasn’t awareness—it was getting the right students to take action at the right moment. Using Modo’s Campaigns capability within MyUSF, USF delivered targeted, in-app prompts only to students who hadn’t enrolled in eDeposit—no mass emails, no irrelevant messaging.

**Key Stats:**

- **Up to 2 weeks faster** financial aid refunds for students who enrolled in eDeposit

- **$2–$4 savings per student** by reducing paper check processing and mailing
- **Targeted delivery**—only unenrolled students saw the message
- **Self-clearing campaigns** that removed themselves once action was completed

### "Ultimately, we weren’t looking to send more messages. We wanted to reduce friction and help students take action at the right moment."

\- University of South Florida
