Persistence Plus

Persistence Plus provides support to help students succeed in college.

Persistence Plus provides personalized support to help students be successful in college and earn their degrees. Using the latest behavioral research, we deliver mobile nudges that will help students:

* Stay motivated and engaged

* Deal with academic setbacks

* Organize their time and responsibilities

* Leverage their peers and campus resources for support, and

* Make progress towards their short- and long-term goals.

Initial studies show that Persistence Plus students earn higher grades on average than students not using Persistence Plus, and a majority of students report that Persistence Plus makes them feel more supported and driven. Persistence Plus users say:

"Thanks for the encouragement and vote of confidence."

"The program works. When I felt trouble about math, I would get a persistence text. That helped."

"The motivational text messages helped me realized that I made this commitment for a reason, which is to succeed in college as a first-generation student."

Students who attend colleges partnering with Persistence Plus will receive a code to access the service.
