Supporting your students throughout their studies

Recruiting and enrolling students to your university is only the first step. Once they are on campus, your students need support to succeed and thrive.

Our Student Retention Services help universities reduce attrition and improve student continuation by engaging at-risk students in a proactive, personalised way. Our student-first approach strengthens wellbeing, improves satisfaction, and enhances institutional performance.

We guide, advise and reassure, making sure students feel supported, connecting on their terms, at a time and channel that suits them, and signposting where needed.

Our Retention Services include: 

  • Risk flag identification

    We use data, trends, and insights to identify students showing signs of disengagement or vulnerability enabling early intervention. 

  • Omnichannel outreach

    Inbound and outbound communication via email, phone, messaging and enquiry forms ensures students can reach support on their terms. 

  • Empathetic engagement

    Our trained team actively listens, responds with care, and offers appropriate support building trust and encouraging re-engagement.

  • Smart Signposting

    When additional support is needed, we direct students to the right internal services whether that’s academic, wellbeing, or financial. 

  • Flexible Service Models

    Whether you need year-round retention support or targeted interventions during key risk periods, we scale to fit your requirements.
