Summer Melt Prevention
Turn summer planning into fall enrollment.
A deposit in May doesn’t guarantee a student in August. Over the summer the first bill arrives and deadlines stack up. Arbol turns the orientation, bridge and first-year sessions you already run into guided planning workshops. Every deposited student leaves with a personal plan to pay for fall, and your team sees who is still stuck while there’s still time to help.
How it works
- Run Arbol workshops in summer programs you already have. You reach every deposited student at once.
- Students see their full fall cost in one place. No surprise bills in August.
- Arbol helps them close the gap with payment plans, jobs, scholarships and savings.
- Each student leaves with a plan and dated next steps. They know they can pay for college.
- Staff reach students with open gaps first. No one is left on their own.
The result: students arrive in the fall supported and confident, and summer melt is 3 percentage points lower.*
