How Advising and Retention of Students Improves Fiscal Stability.

Glennen, Robert E.; And Others

NACADA Journal, v16 n1 p38-46 Spr 1996

An approach to fiscal accountability used at Emporia State University (Kansas) demonstrates how a student academic advising center can improve fiscal stability by increasing retention and graduation rates, thereby increasing enrollment-based appropriations. The method links retention and graduation figures and trends for each year and trends in state support levels to advising activities. (MSE)
