Over 1 million academic support interventions and counting!
Reach, Support, & Retain More Students
We’re on a mission to help more non-traditional and historically marginalized students graduate college. By partnering with colleges and universities, we make holistic student support resources accessible to all student students through our online platform and virtual SMS assistant.

Holistic support for all students
Most colleges and universities have the resources their students need to be successful. Unfortunately, a lot of students either don’t know about this support or can’t access it when it’s most needed. Timely, equitable access to those resources are critical for student retention.
That’s where Upswing comes in. We can help bring your on-campus and remote student support online in a single, easy-to-use platform, and supplement them with our services. Students can access what they need to be successful—including tutoring, mental health, advising, assignment review, instant messaging, and much more—all in one place, anytime they need it.
Reach more students than ever before
Navigating the road to graduation isn’t easy. It’s even harder for those students who are less likely to raise their hands for help. Ana, Upswing’s SMS engagement tool, is there for your students no matter where they are. By providing proactive messages with important reminders, information about resources, support, and encouragement, students will feel more connected and supported on and off campus.
What makes Upswing’s solution unique?
We know that the best solution for student retention is working together with our partners to help make resources accessible and timely for more students. Our flexible modules allow you to pick the best combination of support resources to meet the needs of your students, staff, tutors, and advisors.
We also know that students need more than academic support to be successful. That’s why we offer solutions for mental health, advising, and engagement through Ana. Students, especially those that may be facing additional obstacles outside of the classroom, need holistic support throughout their journey to graduation. All of these resources are online and can be accessed within the Upswing platform, making it easier for students to find what they need when they need it.
Tutoring
With the tutoring module, you can use your campus tutors, Upswing tutors, or a combination of both. Our unique all-in-one tutoring platform gives you the flexibility to provide 24/7 tutoring support.
Assignment Review
Students can receive feedback on any written assignment in less than 48 hours from your tutors or Upswing tutors.
Advising & Early Alerts
Bring your advising online with easy-to-schedule appointments and empower your advisors to track and set early alerts for students.
Mental Health
Provide 1:1 teletherapy sessions for your students to ensure they have access to timely and professional mental health support.
Ana
Reach students no matter where they are with reminders, information, and ongoing support to increase engagement and, ultimately, retention.
Writing Support
Give your students access to videos and an online citation guide to help them improve their writing skills.
A mission-driven community to support your campus
Upswing was founded to help more non-traditional students graduate college. We’ve spent the last decade doing just that—helping hundreds of thousands of students get connected to the resources they need to feel supported and stay in school.
