– “This pilot project tied program-level cost data to student outcomes and explored the extent to which the additional revenue that colleges and universities generate by increasing student retention offsets the additional cost of first-year programs. The project’s goal was to develop, test, and standardize tools that document the relationship between program costs and student results. Armed with this information, institutions will be better able to make informed, data-driven decisions about how to invest limited dollars in ways that help students succeed.”
