Increase Student Retention & Persistence to Graduation
A student success platform to retain students and improve persistence
Get more students engaged with the support that drive retention
PeopleGrove transforms the way colleges and universities support their students, replacing silos across academic and student affairs with one central – and truly scalable – solution for showcasing student benefits. From academic and social-emotional well-being to co-curricular activities and High-Impact Practices, all the existing retention-driving support an institution offers is more accessible for students to navigate, use, and benefit from with PeopleGrove.
Student Retention Results
42% increase in 4-year graduation rates
among students participating in experiential learning
Remove Barriers to Persistence
Connect the classroom to career and student outcomes
If students need academic mentoring, mental health support, or career advising, too often they don’t engage with existing resources their school offers – or don’t even know where to find them. And when students can’t engage with internships or other experiential learning opportunities (as many underserved populations struggle to do), confidence, student outcomes, and retention decline. For all students, traditional, non-traditional, and adult, PeopleGrove improves access to the resources and opportunities that enhance the academic experience.

Student Success Solution Features
"[Our mentoring program] was born from a retention gap among specific student populations. PeopleGrove helped us build up the Toronto Metropolitan community and show our progress with data. We depend on reliable data to be able to successfully report our High-Impact Practices to donors, and keep these programs in place at Toronto Metropolitan for years to come."
“The platform introduces students to a wide variety of experiential learning activities and allows them to find opportunities, on their own time, that they might not have known about otherwise. Our goal is increased graduation and retention rates, and strong post-graduation outcomes for our students, and our PeopleGrove partnership promises to be a great resource for us.”
