The number one factor in college student retention is student engagement. This includes both academic engagement (e.g., participation in class, completion of assignments, and studying for exams) and social engagement (e.g., participation in extracurricular activities, building relationships with faculty and staff, and feeling connected to the campus community).
Students who are engaged in their studies and feel connected to their campus community are more likely to persist and graduate. There are a number of things that colleges and universities can do to promote student engagement, such as:
Providing students with opportunities to get involved in research and creative projects.
Offering high-quality academic advising and support services.
Creating a welcoming and inclusive campus environments with hybrid digital spaces.
Providing students with opportunities to develop their leadership and professional skills.
Connecting students with alumni and other members of the community.
By taking these steps, colleges and universities can help students to succeed and reach their full potential.
Here are some additional factors that can contribute to college student retention:
Academic preparation: Students who are academically prepared for college are more likely to succeed in their studies.
Financial aid: Students who have access to financial aid are more likely to be able to afford college and persist to graduation.
Mental health support: Students who have access to mental health support are more likely to be able to cope with the challenges of college and succeed in their studies.
Sense of belonging: Students who feel like they belong on campus are more likely to persist and graduate.
Colleges and universities can play a role in supporting all of these factors, but it is important to note that student retention is a complex issue with no one-size-fits-all solution.
