- KPI 1.1: Fall to Fall Retention
Ìý
91³Ô¹ÏÍø’s newly formedÌýÌý(SSA), has completed a three-year environmental scan of student success at 91³Ô¹ÏÍø. As a result of its efforts and in furtherance of 91³Ô¹ÏÍø’s Strategic Goal 1, the SSA will begin implementing the resulting Student Success Plan to support the success of students at 91³Ô¹ÏÍø through the coordination of data-driven processes across the institution.
Two definitions of student success that are monitored by the SSA and through 91³Ô¹ÏÍø’s strategic goals include Retention and Course Success Rate.
Retention
As a part of 91³Ô¹ÏÍø’s participation in the Higher Learning Commission’s Student Success Academy, 91³Ô¹ÏÍø made a decision to move away from the IPEDS definition that had previously been 91³Ô¹ÏÍø’s focus and instead look to baseline measures of full time, degree seeking, fall to fall retention and part time degree seeking fall to fall retention metrics.

In support of Goal 1, 91³Ô¹ÏÍø has set specific targetsÌýfor retaining students. By AY26-27, 91³Ô¹ÏÍø will strive to increase fall to fall retention of part-time, first time, degree seeking students to 30%, and full-time, first time, degree seeking students to 60%. These increases each reflect a 9% increase from the current five-year average rates of retention. Further, The SSA will begin reporting on programmatic impacts on retention as a part of the Student Success Plan.Ìý
The SSA has only begun investigating fall to spring retention rates and will consider future goals and recommendations in support of its findings. Ìý
