Yield and melt are two sides of the same coin. The traditional May 1 deadline is no longer a finish line — it’s a milestone within a longer, more fluid enrollment decision journey. Institutions must now manage both yield and melt in tandem, ensuring that admitted students not only choose to enroll but also stay committed through the summer.
In this webinar, we’ll explore the latest national trends in yield and melt, drawing from the latest Eduventures Admitted Student Research™ to highlight students’ perspectives on the decision-making process. We’ll examine how these trends vary across institution types and what that means for your enrollment strategy.
Whether you're fine-tuning seasonal communication plans or rethinking your full-funnel strategy, this session will offer practical insights to help you turn admits into committed students in 2026 and beyond.
