Auburn University at Montgomery

What are the graduation rates for students at Auburn University at Montgomery?

AUM's reported six-year graduation rate is 33% for the measured first-time, full-time bachelor's-degree cohort. Its four-year rate is 22%. These figures track specified entering cohorts over different periods; they are not the percentage of every current student who will eventually earn a degree.

The reported first-year retention rate is 68%, meaning roughly two-thirds of the measured first-time students continued into the following year under that measure. Transfer students, part-time students and returning adults may have different paths that a first-time, full-time graduation rate does not capture well.

For planning, the distinction between four and six years has a direct cost implication: additional terms can mean more tuition and living expenses. Students comparing programs should ask about course sequencing, access to required classes and the expected time to completion for their own enrollment pattern, without treating the institution-wide rate as a prediction of their outcome.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Auburn University at Montgomery?

College Scorecard field-of-study figures report earnings for certain groups of former students about one year after completing a credential. They are early-career, program-specific measures - not guaranteed starting salaries or a university-wide earnings figure.

Among AUM fields with reported figures, the one-year amounts include $54,141 for registered nursing, $50,091 for clinical or medical laboratory science, $40,978 for business administration and $33,422 for general computer and information sciences. Reported figures vary substantially by field and should be compared only after checking the credential level and population represented by each entry.

Scorecard earnings rely on available administrative records for qualifying former students and do not describe everyone who completed a program. Further study, employment status, geography and the timing of a first job can all affect the usefulness of a one-year comparison. Applicants should weigh these figures alongside program cost, completion prospects, licensure requirements and the kinds of work they want to pursue.
