Student success is central to your success

Your institution is only as successful as your students. Completion rates, net revenue, student outcomes, alumni giving, institutional sustainability…student success has a major impact on every substantial measure of campus success.

Student success is critical to enrollment and
fiscal health

Enrollment has flattened for four-year institutions and fallen for two-year institutions in the past five years. Demographic changes have made it almost impossible to “recruit your way out” of the enrollment cliff. To meet your goals for enrollment and net revenue, you must increase student retention and completion.

Student success has more challenges than ever

Diminishing college preparedness…affordability pressures on students and families…more first-generation students who are historically at greater risk…these and many other challenges can undermine student success efforts and cause more students to withdraw from college.
