THE SIX-YEAR GRADUATION RATE
The graduation rate is calculated by tracking a cohort of students (defined as new-entering, full-time, first-time, degree-seeking) from their time of initial enrollment until they complete a bachelor's degree or less within 150% of normal time to program completion at the same institution. For a four-year bachelor's degree program this means students who graduate within six years are successful completers and are included in the rate.
