Key Lessons From the To & Through Advising Challenge
Posted by National College Attainment Network on March 17, 2020
The To & Through Advising Challenge is a project that finds NCAN supporting 20 school districts and partner organizations across the country. The goal is to change the way these organizations do business around postsecondary advising. The Challenge puts effort in four high-impact practices: 1) incorporating fit and match into advising, 2) increasing access to financial aid by driving Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) completion, 3) reducing the effects of summer melt, and 4) putting data-driven processes into place that are guided by data from the National Student Clearinghouse. This work was made possible by support from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
