<p class="MsoNormal">We do a lot of emails, personal and ALMA generated. We also started doing certified letters for those that are over a month overdue. Our “loss” rate is between 3% and 7% depending on the quarter. That means that we return rate between 93%
and 97%. Glad we are good company with Big Bend. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We do see a bump in returns after we’ve sent a batch of certified letters out.

<p class="MsoNormal">We advertise A LOT to get them back. Canvas/email mostly. We can’t hold grades etc. like we once did but we can always choose to not let them check out anything else ever again.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We also offer an update and renewal service if they are attending the following quarter, which works well.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
No firm numbers on what we expect to get back. In general, we probably get back 95%+. Where we have problems has been with our ESL students for some reason.
