Cowley Community College plays an important role in their region, not only by awarding associate’s degrees, but also by helping many of its students transfer to four-year institutions or find employment opportunities across a range of careers. The NISS worked with Cowley to identify key areas for sustained success, including real-time identification of stop-out students, as well as an enhanced standardization of academic advising and the creation of structured pathways to better guide students into and throughout their first year of study.
