Bay Path University

What are the graduation rates for students at Bay Path University?

Bay Path's reported six-year graduation rate is 44% for the measured cohort of first-time, full-time undergraduates pursuing a bachelor's degree. Its reported four-year rate is 36%. These figures track completion within specified periods; they do not represent the graduation prospects of every transfer, part-time, adult, or graduate student.

The reported first-year retention rate is 73%, meaning roughly three-quarters of the measured first-time cohort returned the following fall. The six-year graduation rate is below the reported Massachusetts institutional average of about 66%, but comparisons require care: schools enroll students with different backgrounds and program mixes. Applicants, particularly transfers and adult learners, should ask their program about completion patterns for students entering through a similar pathway.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Bay Path University?

College Scorecard program figures offer a limited view of earnings about one year after completion for graduates included in its federal-aid-based reporting population. They are not salary offers, forecasts for an individual student, or measures of everyone who studied a field at Bay Path.

Examples of reported one-year program-level median earnings include $97,800 for registered nursing, $54,252 for business administration and related management programs, and $46,060 for health services and allied health sciences. The reported figure for psychology is $29,837. Differences can reflect occupation, degree level, prior work experience, local labor markets, and the students represented in each program; they should not be read as the financial return caused by a major alone.

For a useful comparison, applicants should pair earnings data with a program's total cost, likely borrowing, licensing requirements, and the kinds of jobs graduates seek. An early-career earnings measure also cannot show later raises, career changes, or the value of a graduate credential that may be needed for a particular profession.
