NASHVILLE area’s

workforce MTSU’s enrollment exceeds those of Vanderbilt, Tennessee State, Belmont, Fisk, and Lipscomb universities combined. The University produces more graduates for Nashville’s work force than those five institutions put together. Though more MTSU graduates stay and work in middle Tennessee than do graduates of other schools, Blue Raiders can be found throughout the U.S. and worldwide.

MTSU’s new student intake program makes a contract with new students in the Colleges of Education, Behavioral and Health Sciences, and Mass Communication stating explicitly what it will take to be successful at their chosen goals. Then it keeps academic advisors aware of the decisions students are making throughout their academic careers. The end result? Better informed (and tracked) students who stay on course toward graduation.

THERE IS NOT ANOTHER UNIVERSITY IN AMERICA WITH A STUDENT RETAINMENT MODEL LIKE THIS!
