For millions of Americans, leaving college isn’t the end of the story.
While many students stop out before earning a credential, they often plan to return. Yet re-enrolling can prove just as challenging as enrolling in the first place. As colleges look to re-enroll adults with some college but no credential, they are rethinking how to support students whose educational journeys aren’t linear.
Terah Crews, chief executive officer of ReUp Education, a national organization dedicated to helping adults navigate re-entry into higher education, joined Inside Higher Ed student success reporter Joshua Bay on Voices of Student Success to discuss why students stop out, what motivates them to return, the barriers colleges still place in their way and what it will take to build institutions that truly serve today’s adult learners.
