Student services play a key role in student retention, satisfaction and success of any educational establishment. If a college, university or higher education doesn’t provide satisfactory services, it is likely to experience a sharp fall in student recruitment, retention, and reputation. Students from various countries live and study in educational institutions in broad-ranging subjects.

Colleges, Universities and Higher Education institutions help students acquire skills and support to optimize learning and improve graduation rates substantially over the next few years. Here are five ways to boost college student success:

1. Identify sources of dissatisfaction

Make available infrastructure and student support services on campus and identify sources of satisfaction and dissatisfaction, and the extent to which student enjoys all aspects of campus life.

2. Engage with students

Provide help to struggling students through academic support and tutoring to improve pass rates, reduce withdrawals and enhance retention. Ensuring that students connect and collaborate with faculty effectively, and providing notifications and messaging services on academic activities can enhance the learning experience of students.

3. Streamline processes

Improve support services to track students’ activities, as well as streamline administrative and academic processes across campuses.

4. Minimize time accessing services

Locate student services centrally which would decrease waiting times and improve the quality and expertise of the staff. Creating an automated ticket system would eliminate queues and save time.

5. Wrap technology around the institution

Students need access to accurate, personalized academic information – Attendance, courses, schedules, timetables, lesson plans, assignments, and library resources. Harnessing the power of Cloud, CMS, and Mobile technology would transform the learning and teaching ways and also provide all the information students wanted.

Creatrix Campus provides effective and easily accessible student services to improve student engagement and plays a key role in enhancing the institution’s reputation among prospects.
