A Collaborative Action Plan for Student Retention

The Guiding Principle

Student success must be built upon a foundation of collaboration among all university sectors, especially the Offices of Student Affairs, Academic Affairs, and Administration and Finance. Individual schools, colleges and departments will work to make retention a top priority within their programs.

A Message from President Royce C. Engstrom

As an institution, we are committed to ensuring that students who begin their education at The University of Montana have a high likelihood of graduation. Achieving our goal of increasing student retention to 80% by 2013 will require not only institutional partnerships but increased student engagement as well. Partnering for Student Success presents our vision of what we – The University and the students – must do to make that happen.
