The U.S. faces a growing challenge with over 43 million adults who attended college but did not earn a degree or certificate, and a 2.1 million student decline in enrollment reported between January 2022 and July 2023. Reasons for dropping out include personal issues and financial barriers, leading to decreased re-enrollment rates. Institutions are adopting various strategies like personalized coaching to retain students. Research from the University of Washington at Tacoma seeks to identify why students leave and how to better engage and support them in remaining enrolled.
To me, this is how you put this into action, to be able to say that we're going to learn from students what we are not doing well and take responsibility for that.
Students often leave due to personal reasons or because of financial barriers to postsecondary education. A lack of financial resources can also impede re-enrollment.
