Molloy University

enroll the largest incoming class ever

overview

To guide its change to University—and make this designation as important to prospective students as it was to the former Molloy College—they turned to Austin Williams, their agency of record for more than 17 years. Once again, we delivered with a multidimensional and visually exciting campaign that stood out from the sea of newly named universities to drive in the largest freshman class in the school’s history.

Make it about them . . . and U

The agency-designed icon for the new Molloy University is transformed into a branded homonym—representing both the University and the individual—to make the campaign ownable without overshadowing Molloy’s student focus.
