Choosing the right undergraduate programs for revitalization

Key Insights

Internal data can evaluate how programs perform in terms of enrollment goals or cost efficiency, but to understand a program’s potential for performance you want to look to the external market. Our experts have been helping schools compare program performance to peer institutions on two factors:

1. Size, as measured by degree conferrals
2. Growth, also measured by degree conferrals and their change over time

Measuring performance in degree conferrals allows us to synthesize the many factors influencing an undergraduate student’s enrollment down to their observable behavior: completing a degree within the subject area.
