Some areas addressed in our FYI assessment include:

Study Strategies
Academic and Cognitive Skills
Critical Thinking

Knowledge of Academic Services
Managing Time and Priorities
Knowledge of Wellness

The EBI analysis includes two types of reports. Upper Level Summary Reports which give the reader a high level view of the performance of their institution and Lower Level Detail Reports which dig into the data to pinpoint details.

Gender, ethnicity, and other demographic variables are included in the analysis so you can determine the degree to which intervention strategies may need to differ.

Explanation and Examples of Upper Level Summary and Lower Level Detail Reports.
