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.
What We Do
Our team works to examine trends and patterns across the Rutgers—Camden student population. Some areas of research include:
• Academic habits and progress towards degree
• Social adjustment to college
• Financial wellness
• College resource usage
• Student success
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 through a central and collaborative network to support Rutgers—Camden students across their college journey. Our office assists with platform upkeep and oversight, training in system usage, and management of large-scale initiatives utilized within the Navigate platform, such as student progress reports.
