The University Innovation Alliance is a multi-campus laboratory for student success innovation that helps university leaders dramatically accelerate the implementation of scalable solutions to dramatically increase the success of students and graduates. Founded in 2014 by a group of pioneering university chancellors and presidents committed to breaking down silos to collaboration and testing, sharing, and scaling ideas that can help more students succeed, our members span the geographic diversity of the US and serve over 630,000 enrolled undergraduates, including about 185,000 Pell-grant recipients -- which makes up nearly 8 percent of Pell-grant recipients in the four-year public sector of schools. Most importantly, our campuses have helped to dramatically increase the number of graduates completing their degrees across our campuses by 27%, producing more than 160,000 additional graduates over the past decade, including 41% more low income graduates!
