Conventional four- and six-year undergraduate graduation rates are not a useful measure of how ATSU's professional programs perform. Those measures track defined cohorts of first-time undergraduate students; ATSU's core offerings admit students to graduate and professional study.
For a meaningful completion comparison, applicants should look for outcomes published by the specific program and entering class. A medical, dental, or physician assistant program may report completion, licensing-examination, residency-placement, or other outcomes using different definitions. Read the cohort size and measurement period alongside any percentage: a program completion rate does not, by itself, explain why individual students left or how those who completed the degree fared afterward.
Future earnings from an ATSU degree depend heavily on the profession, specialty, work setting, location, and years of experience. A single university-wide salary figure would combine students preparing for substantially different careers and would be a poor basis for a borrowing decision.
Applicants comparing programs should use earnings figures only when the source identifies the degree, graduate population, measurement date, and whether the figure is a median or an average. Early-career pay may also differ from later-career pay after residency, specialty training, or licensure. Alongside any earnings estimate, consider the program's total borrowing costs and the time required before full-time professional practice.
