Student Success and Transformation Project
Complete College America
In December 2020, Complete College America (CCA), in partnership with the Jessie Ball duPont Fund, launched a rigorous 12- to 18-month project designed to increase student success and completion rates at small liberal arts institutions. The focus was on building and enhancing support systems for first-generation and Pell-eligible students, and those from under-resourced communities. The Jessie Ball duPont Fund looked at 40 institutions they work with and identified 12 representing four-year institutions, community and technical colleges, Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSIs), and Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). CCA led program design and provided consultation; access to professional development, research, and expert content; as well as technical support to assist in the implementation of four game-changing strategies: (1) 15 To Finish/Stay on Track; (2) Academic Maps; (3) Proactive Advising; and (4) Postsecondary Data Partnership.
