Iris Palmer was mentioned in Education Dive discussing outsourcing reenrollment services.
Outsourcing reenrollment services can be a "win-win" for the institution and the vendor in cases like those, said Iris Palmer, a senior policy advisor at New America.
ReUp isn't the only company helping colleges reenroll students. InsideTrack, which is part of the nonprofit Strada Education Network, offers similar services, though it isn't its sole focus. And the Graduate Network advises stopped-out students and helps communities better support them.
Palmer notes there is significant need for reenrollment support. "The more support and guidance you can give returning students or people who've dropped out of college, the better off we are," she said.
Horn believes ReUp's early momentum will help it stay a leader in the market. "With three to four years under our belt of doing this work and collecting millions of data points," she said, "we've now conditioned ourselves — I'd like to think — as really the expert here."
