Information Insight Impact

BRIDGEi2i helps a premier US university to be predictive in identifying applicants and

students with higher risk of drop out and build effective & timely intervention strategies.

Business Challenge The client organization is a leading US university with 10,000+ students in variety of programs across Science, Arts,

Management, Nursing, etc. The university spends significant resources & effort on student reach out, awareness

programs and admissions process to attract the best and suitable talent to the university. It is also financially critical

that students stay through the period, since it impacts state funding to the university and also results in unutilized

capacity within a program. The University was very keen to identify the drivers of early attrition and to identify

profiles of students with high dropout risk so that appropriate interventions can be planned in a timely manner to

maximize retention.

BRIDGEi2i Solution Predictive models were built leveraging advanced statistical methods that help not only select applicants with a

higher retention propensity but also identify students with a significantly higher risk of dropping out.

BRIDGEi2i also identified key variables and triggers from both application and course performance data that will

enable the university to design and implement effective intervention strategies aimed at maximizing retention.

Key Drivers of Drop out

Performed in-depth analysis of all

applicant and student related data and

information to identify the most significant

parameters that affects retention.

Predictive Retention Models

BRIDGEi2i developed couple of statistically

robust predictive models that predicts high

risk applicants and identifies “at-risk”

students at various points of lifecycle. One

of the models was useful to identify such

applicants who might leave within 3-6

months’ time and the other one helped to

identify drop outs at the end of first year

based on their performance and

engagement during the first semester.
