Scholarship deadlines come and go quickly, leaving hardly any time for your scholarship fund to wait for students to send their transcripts. The National Student Clearinghouse has an easier and faster solution for ordering students’ transcripts — Third-Party Ordering for Ed Orgs.
For the first time, this year’s Persistence and Retention report offers a detailed look at first spring persistence — the percentage of students who remain enrolled in college for the spring term immediately following their first fall. The report, which continues to track second fall persistence and retention, also revealed that more than 86% of first-time college students from the fall 2023 cohort returned for their second semester.
As millions of students prepare to graduate this spring, the Clearinghouse is working behind the scenes to ensure their transition to the workforce or continued education is seamless. We support learners with convenient student-facing services while reducing the workload of school administrative staff members.
According to our 6th annual Some College, No Credential (SCNC) report, over one million adults returned to higher education after previously stopping out. The report also found that college stopouts — students who leave without earning a credential — declined for the second consecutive year.

Our Electronic Transcript Exchange (ETX) service ─ available to your institution at no cost ─ offers add-on options to help you maximize your time savings and efficiency.
