Nujoom Educational Consulting—Institutional Partnership Services for U.S. Colleges and Universities

A clear, three-step journey to boost student retention and success

The Problem That We Solve

International student enrollment is growing, but retention is not keeping pace. Many institutions invest significant resources in recruiting international students from the Arab world and MENA region, only to see disproportionate numbers struggle academically in their first semester, withdraw quietly, or fail to persist to graduation. The cause is rarely academic ability. It is almost always a failure of culturally competent preparation and support. Nujoom Educational Consulting works directly with institutions to diagnose exactly where that failure is occurring — and to build the systems that prevent it. Engage our services as a comprehensive framework or select a standalone phase tailored to your immediate institutional needs.

Nujoom works with universities and community colleges seeking to improve international student retention, build cultural competence among advising and faculty staff, and develop strategic partnerships that include formal referral. Drawing on more than 10 years of direct higher education administration — including early-alert program design, advisor professional development, and articulation agreement management — we deliver evidence-based institutional interventions that move measurable outcomes.

Institutional pricing is scoped individually. All institutional engagements begin with a complimentary 60-minute diagnostic consultation. Contact: info@nujoomedconsulting.com
