What are the graduation rates for students at Aspen University?

Aspen University's reported graduation rates warrant careful attention: the IPEDS figures for 2024-25 show a 9% four-year graduation rate and a 27% six-year rate. The reported overall graduation rate is also 27%.

These measures describe defined groups of students over specified periods; they are not a prediction of an individual applicant's chance of finishing. Conventional federal graduation-rate cohorts emphasize first-time, full-time students, so they may represent only a limited part of an institution serving transfers and adults studying on different schedules. The figures nevertheless make degree planning important. Applicants can ask how often required courses run, how transferred credits apply and what happens if they need to pause enrollment.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Aspen University?

College Scorecard field-of-study data reported median earnings of $86,104 for Aspen University's registered nursing-related field one year after completion. This is a field-specific outcome, not an average salary for all Aspen students or a promise of what a new graduate will earn.

The measure reflects earnings records for a defined group of former students with federal-aid data who were working and not enrolled at the measurement point. It does not isolate the effect of the degree from prior experience, occupation, location or hours worked. That limitation matters particularly in nursing, where some students may already be licensed and employed before pursuing another credential. Compare the figure with the exact degree pathway you are considering, along with its cost and entry requirements.
