  1. Prebuilt and Block Schedules University of Hawai‘i Joanne Itano Gary Rodwell GPS Policy Institute COMPLETE COLLEGE AMERICA June 25, 2014 Atlanta, GA

  2. “55% of Hawai‘i’s working age adults to have a 2- or 4-year college degree by the year 2025.” Cumulative Degree Gap: 56,803 degree holders Source: NCHEMS & U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey, 1-year estimates, 2006 to 2012

  3. Evolution of Our Strategies

  4. Students “on track” for the first semester Outcome of Our Strategies

  5. Issues Discovered Along the Journey • Great for the first semester, then what? • Scheduling inefficiencies • Accommodating the “off track” students • Limited resources (academic advising)

  6. We needed an intelligent technology platform that could take into account all these factors

  7. The Discovery Process • Ironically, we are currently capable of keeping students on track to graduation • We do it for our student athletes: • 1) Student athlete to advisor ratio is about 50:12) NCAA Eligibility “stay on track = play” • Applying the above to the 60,000 UH students with a current student to advisor ratio of 450:1 would mean: • 800 more advisors = additional $62,000,000 per year

  8. First Rendition of Platform “Pre-registration for Incoming Freshmen” • Start simple (only include first-time, incoming freshmen) • Incorporate tacit knowledge of advisors

  9. Pre-registration Proof of Concept • It works! • And it works very well, however, only for incoming freshmen for their first semester
