What are the graduation rates for students at Agnes Scott College?

Agnes Scott's reported four-year graduation rate is 64%, while its six-year rate is 71%. These measures track completion within specified time windows for an entering group of first-time, full-time degree-seeking undergraduates; they are not graduation rates for every student who has ever enrolled.

The difference between the two rates shows that some students completed after four years but within six. The reported first-year retention rate is 81%, a separate measure of how many students returned for the following year. Neither measure explains why an individual student stays or leaves. Transfers, part-time students, and students who enter through other routes may have different experiences that are not captured by the standard first-time cohort graduation rate.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Agnes Scott College?

Available College Scorecard program-level earnings figures describe measured earnings about one year after completion for federally aided graduates included in the relevant program data. They are not starting-salary offers or predictions for an individual Agnes Scott student.

Reported figures include $38,271 for business administration and management, $21,383 for psychology, and $21,239 for public health. The one-year timing matters: graduates pursuing further education, changing fields, or entering occupations with different early-career pay patterns may not be represented in a way that reflects their eventual outcomes. Program figures also should not be read as institution-wide averages.

When comparing colleges, students can use these numbers as one limited indicator alongside the program's curriculum, internship access, likely cost after aid, and their own career plans. Agnes Scott reports career resources such as counseling, résumé help, interview preparation, job listings, recruiting events, and alumni networking. The availability of those services is distinct from evidence that a particular job or salary will follow.
