What are the graduation rates for students at Barnes-Jewish College Goldfarb School of Nursing?

A single four-year or six-year graduation rate would not describe every Goldfarb student's route through nursing school. Many students enter after prior college study, and graduate students follow different programs and completion schedules from undergraduates.

When comparing completion outcomes, applicants should look for a cohort that matches their intended pathway - for example, entrants to a particular prelicensure BSN option - and note both the expected program length and the period used to measure completion. Graduation, first-attempt nursing licensure examination performance, and employment are different outcomes; none should be substituted for another.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Barnes-Jewish College Goldfarb School of Nursing?

College Scorecard program data report $56,147 in earnings measured one year after completion for the field labeled "Registered Nursing, Nursing Administration, Nursing Research and Clinical Nursing." This is a program-field measure, not a salary offer to every Goldfarb graduate.

Scorecard earnings measures reflect people represented in the underlying federal data and the stated measurement period; they do not capture every graduate's circumstances. The broad field label can also encompass people pursuing different nursing roles. Geography, prior nursing experience, hours worked, and additional credentials may affect an individual's pay. Applicants comparing programs should consider this figure alongside program costs, licensure outcomes, and the kind of work they intend to do.

Goldfarb's reported career support includes individual undergraduate career counseling, résumé preparation, interview workshops, job fairs, employer recruitment, and alumni networking. Those services can assist a job search, but their availability is not an employment guarantee.
