A Data-Driven Approach That Transforms Attrition and Enrollment Data into Actionable Insights. 

In this session, we will explore how the Office of Enrollment Management at the Pingry School developed a groundbreaking data tracking tool known as “the Impact Score.” This innovative tool is designed to evaluate our success in attracting and retaining students who align well with our community values and academic environment. By monitoring student performance throughout their time at Pingry, the Impact Score allows us to gain valuable insights into the effectiveness of our Admissions Committee Rubric in predicting future student success.

More importantly, we will discuss how analyzing this data and identifying trends empowers us to move beyond anecdotal evidence when addressing the root causes of attrition. For instance, if we detect patterns of disengagement among specific demographics, we can proactively tailor our support efforts to meet their unique challenges and needs. This targeted intervention helps us create a more inclusive and supportive environment for all students, leading us to achieve a 96% in our admissions yield and a 0.8% attrition rate.
