Who We Are

Predictive Student Success Modeling

Modeling and predictive analytics to help you identify, understand, and plan for student success.

Help your Admitted Students Achieve Success

Building your enrollment class and achieving enrollment objectives is a tremendous accomplishment worthy of celebration. Admitted students are thrilled to get in and excited about the future. Institutional leadership and stakeholders are excited about the stability created and objective met. However, the mission is not complete until the students persist to graduation. Human Capital Education helps colleges and universities understand, plan for, and address the hard work of student retention with predictive analytics and modeling based on your admitted student cohort data.

Predicting Persistence at the Time of Admissions

Human Capital Education scores prospective and enrolled students on their likelihood to persist and graduate, using a variety of data sources captured prior to and during the admissions process. We provide your leaders with insight from application through graduation. Student-level scores allow your team to identify needs and provide the resources and services necessary to help each student achieve success. We empower proactive student retention built on evidence, reducing the need for reactive triage.

From Application to Graduation, One Connected Model.

Effective student success and retention plans begin with prediction modeling at admissions. We help schools identify the likelihood of a student and cohort to yield, to pay, and to persist, all before enrollment decisions are final. We leverage layered signals to combine data from academic profile, demographics, and admitted-student survey responses; helping you understand preparedness, ability to pay, and likely sense of belonging. A comprehensive risk scoring model identifies high-risk students for academic, financial, or campus-climate support, allowing you to deliver services and support before at-risk students even know they need support.

Powering Data-driven Persistence and Student Success

We help you build a forward-looking view of persistence based on data. Human Capital’s models let you see persistence as a continuation of enrollment, beginning before a student ever arrives on campus.

Persistence and graduation scores: Understand student-level likelihood to persist and to graduate in four years.

At-risk student identification: Understand the specific support needed at an individual level - academic, financial, or cultural and campus-climate.

Admissions-to-retention linkage: Understand how class composition and aid decisions impact class retention at time of admission.

Aid-leveraging trade-off analysis: Understand where class composition and aid packaging are likely to impact retention later.

Cohort tracking: Understand your class across years and provide continuous support through the sophomore, junior, and senior years.

Student Success Intelligence and Strategy

At Human Capital, we go beyond scoring and analytics. Our team provides actionable insights and helps you develop a strategic plan to support your students through graduation. We are the analytic and consulting bridge that connects students to your campus from admissions, financial aid, and student success; enabling technology-driven student-success services that scale.

Connecting Admissions and Retention

Retention isn’t a downstream problem to solve in year two or three. Student success starts when the class is built. We model the enrollment data to help you identify and understand the trade-offs during admission and aid leveraging process, allowing you to supply the right support and tailor aid packages upfront. Because proper planning for student success services in year one turns a potential retention problem into a student success opportunity.
