Strategy/Project Description:
- High Risk Factors were identified and assessed for FTFT Cohort, which include: Late/No Pre-registration, High Course Withdrawals, DFWs @ Mid-term or Early Alerts, No Advising Activities Reported.
- Students were classified as High, Medium, and Low Retention Risk.
- Strategies were applied to address and resolve the specific retention risk of students. Note: Retention of AMSC students at Off-campus sites significantly and positively impact the retention rate (Within the USG)
Activity Status:
Evaluation/Assessment plan:
| Associate Degree Seekers (FTFT) | ||
| Cohort | Retention Rate (AMSC) |
Retention Rate (Within USG) |
| Fall 2023 | 41.0% | 43.6% |
| Fall 2024 | 39.7% | 63.0% |
Progress and Adjustments:
The Fall 2024 cohort retention rate is slightly below the ASPIRE target of 41%; There was, however, a
significant increase in the retention rate for AMSC students who enrolled elsewhere in the system.
ASPIRE Award Targets: Retention Rate = 39% (Fall 2023); 41% (Fall 2024)
