Office of Retention

The Office of Retention, housed within the Student Academic Success Division, works to address issues that lead to student attrition and implement student centered interventions that promote student success. Through a data informed lens, we work to understand our students, their needs, and their overall experiences at Rutgers—Camden in order to provide targeted support throughout the student lifecycle.

Our Services

Divisional Data Support

The Office of Retention supports the Student Academic Success Division with data needs related to various student cohorts, in addition to the coordination of aligned efforts across the SAS division to support student retention.

Cross Collaborative Data Support

Outside of Student Academic Success, our data support also extends to campus partners through shared student success initiatives. This includes student progress report activity in collaboration with campus faculty, student event tracking in collaboration with the Office of Student Involvement, and more.

Navigate Platform Support

The Navigate platform is a Student Success Management System that connects students, advisors, faculty, staff, and administrators to support Rutgers–Camden students throughout their academic journey. Our office oversees platform administration, provides user training, and manages key initiatives such as student progress reports.
