On Track to College Graduation: Summer Melt Webinar

Summer melt is the phenomenon in which incoming first-year students who intend to go to college fail to show up on day one, often due to missed administrative steps or lack of summer guidance. This summer, the School District of Philadelphia released a report on summer melt for the classes of 2022, 2023 and 2024 and the CASE On Track to College Graduation Action Team has invited authors of the report to join and discuss. Webinar presenters:

·    Motunrayo Olaniyan, Ph.D., Senior Research Associate, SDP

·    Hillary Kane, Director, PHENND

In addition, PHENND will share a summer melt checklist that was developed after reaching out to area colleges for the information that they share with incoming students. Join the webinar to hear about the data, see the checklist and share resources and initiatives that have worked for your programs.
