Financial Impact Analysis

The Financial Impact Analysis provides a wide array of data visualizations to support the analysis of student outcomes and their related financial impact. Data table templates are built in Excel, and pre-built Power BI templates operate with Microsoft's free version of Power BI Desktop application. Once populated, these templates allow users to analyze enrollment, course-related data, financial data, and net tuition revenue. Program-level contribution margins can also be calculated using these tools.
