Focus on Re-enrollment: Making the Case and Laying the Groundwork
Explore the ROI of re-enrolling stopped-out students.
As interest in re-enrolling stopped-out students grows, many colleges and universities face a core challenge: building institutional buy-in for a re-enrollment initiative while ensuring the institution itself is student-ready.
This editorial webcast explores the return on investment of re-enrollment—for learners, institutions and communities—and why proving clear ROI is crucial to making the case for an enrollment initiative, including to executive leadership.
Expert panelists will examine the groundwork required for a successful launch, including establishing adult-ready policies and streamlined and simplified processes. The discussion will also surface typical pressure points in re-enrollment initiatives and consider how holistic support helps students persist through completion, not just return.
