The students most likely to leave college are not the least qualified. They are the ones who arrived without a community built for the specific emotional demands of the first year.
Most students who ultimately leave college make that decision within the first eight weeks. The triggers are not failing grades. They are stress, loneliness, financial pressure, and the feeling of not belonging.
If you are thinking about leaving, even a little, you are not alone. 41% of first-generation college students seriously consider leaving during Year 1. The question is whether you have a community to work through it with.
Every Persist student participates in a structured weekly group community call with Dr. Thurman and a cohort of peers going through the same experience.
First eight weeks. Mid-semester. Summer melt. These are the three windows when most students make the decision to leave. Persist group calls are structured around these windows.
