大学毕业率往往落后于大学入学率。关于为什么学生没有完成大学学业的一种理论是，他们缺乏关于如何成功或失败的关键信息。我们提出的证据，从一个随机实验，测试个性化的学生辅导的有效性。在两个不同的学年中，InsideTrack，一个学生辅导服务，为就读公立、私立和私立大学的学生提供辅导。大多数参与的学生是非传统的大学生就读于学位课程。参与的大学和InsideTrack随机分配学生接受辅导。教练定期与学生联系，以制定明确的目标愿景，指导他们将日常活动与长期目标联系起来，并支持他们建立技能，包括时间管理，自我宣传和学习技能。被随机分配给教练的学生更有可能在治疗期间坚持下去，并且更有可能在教练结束后1年进入大学。与以前研究的增加财政援助等干预措施相比，辅导也证明是一种更具成本效益的方法，可以实现留用和完成学业的收益。
College graduation rates often lag behind college attendance rates. One theory as to why students do not complete college is that they lack key information about how to be successful or fail to act on the information that they have. We present evidence from a randomized experiment which tests the effectiveness of individualized student coaching. Over the course of two separate school years, InsideTrack, a student coaching service, provided coaching to students attending public, private, and proprietary universities. Most of the participating students were nontraditional college students enrolled in degree programs. The participating universities and InsideTrack randomly assigned students to be coached. The coach contacted students regularly to develop a clear vision of their goals, to guide them in connecting their daily activities to their long-term goals, and to support them in building skills, including time management, self-advocacy, and study skills. Students who were randomly assigned to a coach were more likely to persist during the treatment period and were more likely to be attending the university 1 year after the coaching had ended. Coaching also proved a more cost-effective method of achieving retention and completion gains when compared with previously studied interventions such as increased financial aid.
