A conventional four-year or six-year freshman graduation rate is not a useful measure of Adler University's predominantly graduate-level education. Those federal measures follow defined cohorts of first-time undergraduate students; they should not be interpreted as completion rates for Adler's master's or doctoral programs.
Graduate applicants can instead ask their intended program for recent completion data, typical time to degree, attrition, and - where relevant - internship placement and licensure-exam outcomes. A doctoral program's dissertation or required clinical training can also affect the time needed to finish. Comparisons are most meaningful when the programs use the same definition of completion and follow students for the same length of time.
A dependable one-year post-completion earnings figure for Adler University's clinical, counseling, and applied psychology students is not established here. It would be misleading to treat a single salary figure as the expected return from any of its degrees.
Earnings can differ substantially by credential, occupation, employer, location, and whether a graduate has completed supervised hours and obtained a license. When comparing programs, applicants should distinguish earnings measured shortly after completion from income later in a career, and check whether a published statistic covers all graduates, only people with reported wages, or a particular degree and field. Program cost and likely borrowing are also relevant to that comparison.
