Columbus Technical College is one of 28 institutions that constitute the Technical College System of Georgia. The college recognizes that each student requires a unique set of support services. See how Starfish has helped automate a comprehensive early alert system.

Estrella Mountain Community College enrolls approximately 15,000 students annually. Because EMCC is an open enrollment institution, a large number of students enter the college needing to complete developmental courses in English, math and/or reading prior to beginning college-level courses. The college has leveraged Starfish to reach students with the help they need, when the need it. Find out how.

Paul Smith's is a small, private institution enrolling approximately 900 students, many of which are first-generation students on financial aid from the Federal Pell Grant Program. For years, the institution has retained about 60% of first-year full-time students into their sophomore year and 35% to graduation. The college has deployed Starfish to address the inherent data management issues that exist on campus when pockets of information stay isolated in various departments. See their results.

The University of Mary Washington has long prided itself on offering students a comprehensive advising program facilitated by faculty advisors. In particular, the first-year experience program helps ease students into college life with small freshmen seminar classes and one-on-one advising sessions with an assigned faculty member. The university needed a system that could make their interaction with students more efficient and valuable. Learn how Starfish helped.
We have selected Starfish to help us make certain that our faculty and advisors are looking at the same indicators of student success and following the same workflow to ensure that we are getting to students as quickly as possible to offer help and keep them on track. With Starfish, we are now able to spend more time helping students instead of being caught up in paperwork.
