The Challenge

Most colleges make program decisions without knowing the exact financial outcomes.​

You should always know:

  • Which programs are truly sustainable?
  • Are we investing in the right places for maximum growth?
  • Is my program portfolio financially responsible?

Too often, these answers are based on assumptions, outdated trends, or fragmented spreadsheets.

The Solution

Most colleges make program decisions without knowing the exact financial outcomes.​

You should always know:

  • Access to revenue, cost, and margin by program and course
  • Clear visualizations that enable everyone to understand program economics
  • Benchmark comparisons to other institutions
  • Customizable data tables

Too often, these answers are based on assumptions, outdated trends, or fragmented spreadsheets.

Real-World Example

A Hidden Drain—Revealed in Minutes

  • Program: Master’s Degree in Nursing Education
  • Loss: $800,000 over three years
  • Completions: Declining
  • What Happened: The program was flagged as a high-cost outlier. The team restructured the program and redirected resources for high-growth and savings.

Before Gray DI, this program would’ve slipped through budget reviews. Now, it’s on a path to sustainability.
