• The graduation/completion rate is based on 6 years of attendance that equates to
  150% of our longest program.
• We have elected not to report our transfer-out rate because our university's mission does not include providing substantial preparation for students to enroll in other institutions.
• The graduation/completion rate does not include students who were part-time, transferred, or who leave for national service. Students who died are also excluded.
