Retention/Graduation Rate
Retention Rates
First-time student retention
Retention rates measure the percentage of entering students who continue their studies the following fall.
Graduation rates for full-time, first-time undergraduates who began program in 2001
Percentage of entering students counted in calculating graduation rate:
77%
Overall graduation rate:
80%
Transfer out rate:
10%
Bachelor's degree rate
Six year rate by gender
Six year rate by race/ethnicity
(!) Interpret data with caution. There are insufficient cases for a reliable estimate.
Graduation rates measure the percentage of entering students who complete their program in a certain time. We report an overall graduation rate that counts students as graduates if this is their first time in college, they study full time, and they complete their program within 150% of its normal time. For a four-year degree program, entering students who complete within six years are counted as graduates.
Transfer-out rates measure the percentage of entering students who transfer to another institution within 150% of normal time to program completion.
An increase in student population and stricter enforcement have resulted in an increase in drug and alcohol arrests.
