Getting Comfortable with Thinking Outside the Box: Attracting and Retaining Students

Attracting and retaining students has been the focus of Point Park University for many years. In the competitive higher ed environment in Pittsburgh, Point Park knew it needed to think differently to meet campus growth plans.

The speakers will share the planning, engagement, and metrics used to bring about the successful implementation of this vision.
