Using Predictive Analytics to Increase Student Retention

Student retention is near the top of every institution's agenda. Student attrition results in tens of thousands of dollars lost each year. A recent student from RPK Group found that, on average, better retention could lead to $1M in profit each year¹.

Why is a focus on Student Retention Important? 

• Government Funding Impact
  • At least 70% of states allocate funding partially based on student outcomes
• Reduced Costs
  • More cost-effective to keep students than recruit new students
• Changing Marketplace
  • Students come from increasingly complex backgrounds leading to balancing multiple priorities along their schooling i.e. Work, Family, Finances
