Graduation Rates
The graphs below represent both 100% and 150% graduation rates for the Associate and Baccalaureate cohorts, respectively. A cohort is defined as incoming first-time, full-time students for the indicated fall term. The 150% rates include those who graduated within the 100% timeframe. For both associate and baccalaureate graduates, the 150% rates are much higher than 100% rates, and have remained fairly consistent over a ten-year period; associate cohorts in the graph range from those entering in the Fall 2011 term through Fall 2020, whereas baccalaureate cohorts range from Fall 2008 – Fall 2017.
