On average, a university can lose between 30-50 percent of its total student enrollment each year—and this can be greater in certain sectors. Institutions must identify factors that can predict persistence and success to understand how to properly allocate resources toward attrition mitigation strategies and enhance graduation rates. Cicero leverages data to develop models that help institutions identify students who are at greatest risk for attrition and analyzes operations to ensure that interventions are appropriately aligned with needs and risk factors, ultimately improving institutions’ capacity to provide assistance and increase the odds of success.
