About Fuller Higher Ed Solutions

Tim Fuller

Founder, Fuller Higher Ed Solutions

Fuller HES, founded in June 2020, grows out of Founder Tim Fuller’s deep love for and experience with Christian colleges and universities. His 40-year career includes 27 years of enrollment service and leadership at Houghton College and 13 years of consulting at Credo.

During his Credo tenure the firm’s work with Christian colleges increased from less than 10 to more than 150 campus partners, with much of this growth attributed to Fuller’s experience, network, and talented colleagues.

Fuller has personally consulted with more than 100 Christian college campuses to help them with enrollment, strategic planning, and making the case for why they are worth choosing.

A team of affiliate consultants are part of the Fuller HES team, providing experience, expertise, and a love for Christian higher education.

Our team strikes the right balance between best practice strategies and deep knowledge of the unique nature of Christian higher education. The North American Coalition for Christian Enrollment Professionals (NACCAP) has entrusted their ongoing research to Tim’s leadership since 2008 (www.naccapresearch.org), providing both the organization and its members with valuable comparative data on funnel, staffing, and budget trend data.
