Background on Building the Student Retention and Graduation Plan

Executive Primer on Student Persistence and RetentionRetention rates commonly measure the percentage of freshmen that re-enroll the next academic year as sophomores. The primary reason that retention rates, along with graduation rates, are important is that retention rates are perceived as indicators of academic quality and student success.

In addition to retention, persistence, a student's continuation behavior leading to a desired goal, helps describe processes related to student goal achievement.

Generalizations about retention can be misleading because each school is dynamically unique in terms of academic emphasis and culture. Retention issues can be further complicated because of the necessity to understand students' educational goals in assessing whether leaving school is a negative or positive decision.

ADAPTED FROM: DANA Center Retention Report, 1998

How to Start a Retention Roadmap: Appoint Campus Champions and Set Goals

ACTs 2006 Retention Recommendations: colleges (should) create a structured, comprehensive retention program geared to assist students as they make the transition to college life.

Designate a visible, senior-level individual on campus to coordinate retention activities.

Analyze student characteristics and needs and then implement a formal retention program that best meets those needs and the needs of the institution.

Take an integrated approach to retention efforts that incorporates both academic and non-academic factors.

Implement an early-alert assessment and monitoring system to identify students at risk of dropping out.

SOURCE: ACT Retention Research Report, 2006 http://www.act.org/path/policy/pdf/college_retention.pdf

Typically four-year schools have higher retention rates than do two-year schools.

In general, studies indicate that financial aid helps increase persistence for students who need and receive financial aid.

Studies indicate that certain student populations, such as older students, African Americans and Hispanics, students who work more than 30 hours weekly, and first generation college students often have persistence problems.

According to research studies, a few factors that influence persistence include the intent to persist, institutional and student commitment, college grades, high school academic experience, and social and academic integration.

Schools can improve retention rates by more accurately determining when and why students withdraw. Having more up-to-date information could help administrators determine better strategies for increasing retention rates.

Recommend increasing retention rates by encouraging schools to develop and implement their unique retention plans and by strengthening freshmen-year instruction.

DANA CENTER RETENTION REPORT, 1998

Management Guidelines for Improving Retention

Develop a database. Find out who stays and leaves. Do not treat all students alike. Make sure students have the skills and abilities necessary to do the academic work. Provide curriculum students want. Understand supportpsychological, emotional, and financial; when the support is lacking or withdrawn, attrition will likely increase. Admit students who are likely to fit and help them adjust. Make everyone aware of the importance of attitudes toward school in influencing retention. Provide activities to enhance students' loyalty to the institution. SOURCE: Bean and Hossler, 1990

BENCHMARKING:Did UMR Have a Retention Problem?

UMR Compared to National DataUMR: 13% drop out rate after the first year23.8% drop out rate for public Ph.D. granting institutions (July 2001 ACT National Collegiate Dropout and Graduation Rates report)18.6% drop out rate for selective institutions (average ACT 22-27) (July 2001 ACT National Collegiate Dropout and Graduation Rates report)31% of all students enrolled in science, mathematics, engineering and technology either transferred to a non-SMET degree or dropped out of school completely. (September 2001 Center for Institutional Data Exchange and Analysis)13.4% of students at the participating institutions ranked as highly selective (ACT>24) dropped out. This number is lower than UMRs dropout rate. (September 2001 Center for Institutional Data Exchange and Analysis)

Summarizing the non-returning freshmen dataThe average student leaving UMR is a good a student: ACT: upper 20% in nation, High School Class Rank: upper 25%The non-returning students scored on average 1.16 points lower than those returning students on the ACT (range is 0.6-1.8)Non-returners averaged 8.8 percent lower in class rank than their staying counter parts (range is 7.5 to 10.5)Non-returners scored on average .24 points lower in HS GPA (range is .21 - .25)Non-returners earned an average UMR GPA of .775 lower than their returning counterparts (range is .64 - .86)Non-returners also averaged almost a full point lower UMR GPA when compared to their HS GPA while their counterparts averaged less than a .5 drop from their HS GPA to their UMR GPA.

Do you plan to return to UMR?38 of the 56 (68%) students do not plan to return to UMR14 of the 56 (25%) plan to return (Stop-outs: this includes students leaving for military service)4 of the 56 (7%) were not certain of their plans

Would you recommend UMR to another student?21 of the 56 (38%) would recommend UMR to another student unconditionally 22 of the 56 (39%) would recommend for engineering/science/math only2 of the 56 (4%) would recommend UMR with a caveat (its not for everyone, if they wanted to go away)3 of the 56 (5%) said no

Common themes (1):Why did you leave UMRChanged majors (9 in FS01, 7 in FS02, 12 in FS03, 15 in FS04)Financial / too expensive (10 in FS01, 4 in FS02, 9 in FS03, 4 in FS04)Low Grades (8 in FS01, 4 in FS02, 1 in FS03, 1 in FS04)Rolla is boring / too small (8 in FS01, 2 in FS02, 2 in FS03, 2 in FS04)

Common themes: (2)What would have kept you at UMR Nothing would have kept me at UMR (9 in FS01, 5 in FS02, 19 in FS03, 12 in FS04) More money or financial aid (6 in FS01, 6 in FS02, 8 in FS03, 4 in FS04)More majors or non-engineering degrees (5 in FS01, 3 in FS02, 5 in FS03, 4 in FS04)Higher or better grades (4 in FS01, 3 in FS02, 0 in FS03, 2 in FS04)

Post Graduation SurveyAround 95% of UMR graduates secure a position in their field/area of choice within 3 months of graduation. Average starting salary of 2005 graduates exceeded +$49,000.00

What We LearnedMust focus on: Student-friendly policies, Improving systems & practices that impede general student persistence inside and outside of the classroom

Primary Student FearsFlunking out of college

Not making friends

Successful Students/Graduates Recommendations for New StudentsGo to ClassLearn to StudyAsk for Help

Key UnderstandingsThere is no Magic Bullet Retention programs must be designed to meet student needs and have an academic success focusRetention programs must be multi-facetedDo not ignore Socio-Economic FactorsQuick Improvements can be made by examining Processes and Points of Student ActionNeed a true team effort: IR, Academic Programs, Student Affairs, Enrollment Management, etc

Policy/System Changes to Improve Retention/GraduationUMRs Low Hanging FruitEarly Warning System Report Incomplete grade time limit changeRepeat course GPA adjustment policy Scholarship Reinstatement PolicyAll BS degree programs reduced to between 124 to 128 hoursAdded 3 degree programs most often requested by existing students: Business, IST, Technical CommunicationCreate better understanding of faculty and student expectations. Actively embrace the social norming concept.Address group building (making friends) and study skills (not flunking out) in all orientation and opening week activities

ONGOING RETENTION STRATEGIESUse the HPI to better identify at-risk UMR students for early alert and interventionImprove the delivery and communication of student support servicesBetter connect students to campus resources and activities by further implementing an electronic communication and surveying systemContinue the retention audit and data collection process.

ACT Policy Report, The Role of Academic and Non-Academic Factors in Improving College Retention, indicates that many colleges' retention efforts are too narrowly focused.

Academic help alone is not enough to keep many students in school. These students also need individual support to feel connected to the campus community. Colleges, however, may focus on only academic or non-academic support, rather than both.

IMPROVING BEYOND THE AUDIT & LOW HANGING FRUIT

A Long-Term Roadmap to Improving Student Success:

An Implementation of the Critical Best Practices for UMR Students0
