Alder Graduate School of Education

What are the graduation rates for students at Alder Graduate School of Education?

Conventional four- and six-year undergraduate graduation rates are not useful measures of Alder's graduate teacher-residency pathway. The institution reported no first-time degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates in the 2024-25 enrollment data, so an undergraduate cohort rate would not describe its typical applicant.

For this school, more relevant questions concern completion of the graduate degree, completion of required fieldwork, and progress toward the intended teaching credential. These are related but different outcomes: finishing coursework does not automatically mean that every state credential requirement has been satisfied.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Alder Graduate School of Education?

No reliable Alder-specific, field-of-study earnings figure is presented here for one year after graduation. A salary claim without a defined cohort and measurement method would be particularly misleading for a teacher-preparation program, where pay can differ by school district, credential status, prior experience, and contract terms.

Applicants comparing potential earnings should look at the published salary schedule for the districts where they might work. They should check how a master's degree, additional units, and prior service affect placement on that schedule. A district pay scale describes possible contract pay under specified conditions; it is not a guarantee of a job or an individual salary.
