How the U. of MT is Engaging and Supporting Stop-Outs
EAB’s Ed Venit sits down with Brian Reed from the University of Montana to discuss how his team is supporting students who started college but left before completing a bachelor’s degree. Dr. Reed shares how Montana retroactively awards associate degrees where possible, giving former students a meaningful credential that can improve their earning potential and, in many cases, motivate them to return and finish their studies. Ed and Brian also offer practical guidance for campus leaders seeking to build more effective pathways to completion.
