Graduation Rates
The EPP provides students opportunities to complete a degree or certifcate at their own pace. Therefore, it is difficult to present accurate graduation rates based on the 4, 6 or 8 year time. However, the overall 8 year cohort graduation rate for the university for first-time, full-time degree seeking freshman is 45.54%. Additionally, the current overall fall 2017 to fall 2018 retention rate for first-time, full-time degree seeking freshman is 73.29%, and the overall fall 2018 to spring 2019 retention rate for first-time, full-time degree seeking freshman is 90.59%.
