Momentum Year

Much like Newton's First Law of Motion, the concept of Momentum Year seems simple. A student at rest tends to stay at rest, while a student in motion tends to stay in motion, and once in motion, develop momentum. Gaining and maintaining that momentum is key to student completion. 

You've built out your Momentum Year and implemented policies to help guide and enforce the process. So, what's next? Are you intervening early enough and with the right data? How are you tracking and measuring students? Are your students making stronger academic decisions and completing their gateway courses? 

Ad Astra's Momentum Year solution can help your students build early momentum, so they can meet key first-year benchmarks. 

• Benchmark Momentum Year Metrics
  • Year-over-year longitudinal tracking
  • Measure your students' momentum and see how it compares
• Momentum Year Intervention Strategies
  • Provide student specific data on progress to tailor communications
  • Provide waypoints that allow an institution to intervene and get students on track
