Many post-secondary institutions are rethinking their structure and supports so that more students graduate and do so on time. Promising approaches include:

• Get students off to a good start in the first year, encouraging all students to choose a major by the end of the first year and to develop an individual graduation plan.
• Create degree maps and pathways that help students visualize the path toward graduation, paired with intensive advising that keeps more students on track.
• Intervene quickly when students need support through “predictive analytics” technologies.
• Empower students to adjust their own pathways through college and into career.
• Use data about student needs to structure post-secondary offerings and resources in a way that meets those needs more effectively.
