Colleges With the Highest and Lowest 4-Year Graduation Rates, 2017

By Chronicle Staff

August 11, 2019

Colleges usually refer to their six-year graduation rates rather than their four-year rates. But the four-year rate matters, especially to whoever is footing the bill. Among four-year institutions grouped by sector and residential classification, highly residential private nonprofit colleges had the highest four-year graduation rate in 2017, and they were the only category with an overall four-year rate above 50 percent. Only four private nonprofit institutions — and no public institutions — had four-year graduation rates exceeding 90 percent for adjusted cohorts of first-time, full-time bachelor’s-degree-seeking students who began their studies in the fall of 2011.

Note: Only degree-granting U.S. colleges that are eligible to participate in Title IV federal financial-aid programs, with at least 50 students in the degree-seeking cohort, are included. Four-year graduation rates reflect the percentage of first-time, full-time, bachelor’s-degree-seeking students who entered in the fall of 2011 and completed bachelor’s or equivalent degrees at the same institution within four years (by August 31, 2015). Those are the latest available data for four-year graduation rates. Cohorts are adjusted to exclude students who died, were permanently disabled, or left to serve in the military or with a foreign-aid agency or official church mission. Students who transferred and then graduated from another institution are not counted as having graduated. Colleges’ residential category is based on the “size and setting” classification of the 2018 Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education. The setting of a few unclassified institutions was based on their 2015 classification or the institutions’ website descriptions of their residential status. “Highly residential” campuses are those where more than 50 percent of degree-seeking undergraduates live on campus and more than 80 percent of those students attend full time. “Primarily residential” campuses are those where 25 percent to 49 percent of degree-seeking undergraduates live on campus and at least 50 percent attend full time. “Primarily nonresidential” campuses are those where fewer than a quarter of degree-seeking undergraduates live on campus or more than half of the students attend part time. Percentages are rounded, but ranks are ordered on the basis of unrounded figures. Questions or comments on the Chronicle List should be sent to Ruth Hammond.
