This document discusses improving college choice by providing students and parents better information. It finds that while states collect some academic and financial data to inform choice, fewer ensure families have access to it. Only a few states provide early warning reports or information on meeting college requirements to families. Additionally, most states collect enrollment and remediation data for public institutions but far fewer do for private or for-profit schools. The document calls for better collaboration to improve student and parent access to data that can inform college choice.

1659_Early Warning
States are increasingly using early warning systems to identify students at risk of falling off track to graduation. These systems analyze data like attendance, behavior, and course performance to predict which students may need additional support. States provide this early warning data to districts, schools, teachers, counselors, and parents to help guide intervention efforts. While more states are developing early warning systems, most only provide the data periodically or upon request. Going forward, states aim to better support stakeholders in using predictive analytics to keep students on a path to both high school graduation and future career or college readiness.

It is critical for a planning team to conduct the needs assessment and analyze the data to identify root causes and priorities. The results should be used to create SMART goals and select strategies to meet identified needs.
