The *Signal Vine Playbook for Stop Outs* offers prepackaged messaging delivered via conversational texting that targets students who were once enrolled at an institution but have not graduated.    Bringing students back is mission-critical for modern higher education institutions. [39 million](https://www.highereddive.com/news/39m-students-have-left-college-without-earning-a-credential-report-finds/623500/) individuals left American colleges and universities before earning a degree. And according to the National Student Clearinghouse, over [25%](https://nscresearchcenter.org/persistence-retention/) of first-year students do not return for their second year of education. At community colleges the persistence challenges are even more significant, with 41% of students leaving after their first year.  The *Signal Vine Playbook for Stop Outs* was developed by Signal Vine experts with firsthand experience in higher education administration, and whose work focuses on engaging students with new channels. What’s more, the playbook has already shown success in numerous pilots, driving over $2 million in increased revenue at one institution and an enrollment increase of over 400% at another.  “Students are on their phones. With nuanced text messaging and a clean re-enrollment process, we quickly supported students in their desire to return and complete their credential,” said Allison Dering, director of enrollment management and financial aid at SOWELA Technical Community College, where they leveraged the playbook to re-engage students and [generated over $170,000 in tuition as a result](https://moderncampus.com/case-study/sowela-technical-community-college-engaged-students.html). “Texting was incrementally less work and had a much higher ROI in terms of time, dollars, and staff engagement.”   The *Signal Vine Playbook for Stop Outs* will:  - Enable higher education institutions to reach out to students who have left and bring them back to campus;  - Generate valuable insights into why students departed and what prompts them to return;  - Focus staff time by sending personalized messages at scale and programmatically answering routine questions while employees focus where they are most valuable;   - Prompt students to discover resources available from the institution that will help them overcome personal obstacles and get back on track; and   - Support institutions with experts who can help iterate on the playbook adapting to the needs of students.  “Higher education is facing an enrollment and persistence crisis. There are 1.4 million fewer students enrolled today than there were in 2019, and student debt is continuing to spiral,” said Reuben Pressman, chief product officer at Modern Campus. “The *Signal Vine Playbook for Stop Outs* is a critical resource—backed by research—designed to help colleges and universities support their learners by identifying their challenges early and by reducing their barriers to returning and completing their education.”  Modern Campus plans to release additional Playbooks to support institutions’ ability to engage their learners efficiently and effectively over the next several months. **About Modern Campus **  Modern Campus is obsessed with empowering its 1,800+ higher education customers to thrive when radical transformation is required to respond to lower student enrollments and revenue, rising costs, crushing student debt, and administrative complexity.  The [Modern Campus engagement platform](https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=3416525-1&h=1574939231&u=https%3A%2F%2Fmoderncampus.com%2Fproducts%2Fmodern-campus-platform.html&a=Modern+Campus+engagement+platform) powers solutions for non-traditional student management, web content management, catalog and curriculum management, student engagement and development, conversational text messaging, career pathways, and campus maps and virtual tours.
