The ACT student record contains powerful relationship-building information that can be used to:
- Identify students who need and want help
- More effectively build relationships with students
- Facilitate referrals to departments and activity areas
AIM can also help your campus improve the delivery in key areas that affect retention and student success:
- Advising
- Course placement
- Academic support
- Student engagement
- Retention interventions
AIM allows you to import data from your campus applicant pool, match applied students with ACT-tested students, and use key data—such as campus admissions status, college, major, and advisor—as search criteria within AIM. For retention uses of the data, AIM allows you to identify and delete all non-enrolled students so that staff in advising, career development, student activities, and many other areas can access only the students they want to work with.
