Brevard College

What are the graduation rates for students at Brevard College?

Brevard College's reported six-year graduation rate is 49% for the measured first-time, full-time degree-seeking cohort; its four-year rate is 34%. These are cohort measures, not a prediction of whether an individual student will graduate.

The six-year measure allows more time for completion than the four-year measure, which matters when comparing schools or estimating a personal budget. Brevard's reported first-year retention rate is 62%, meaning that roughly that share of the measured first-time cohort returned the following fall. Transfer students and part-time entrants may not be represented in these commonly cited first-time, full-time rates. Applicants weighing a particular major can ask about course availability and advising as well as the college-wide figures.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Brevard College?

Field-of-study earnings reported for Brevard College describe measured income about one year after completion for eligible former students with earnings records. They are historical outcomes for particular groups, not starting-salary offers or forecasts for current applicants.

Among the reported one-year figures, the median is $32,424 for business administration, management, and operations; $27,206 for criminal justice and corrections; and $24,209 for sports, kinesiology, and physical education or fitness. College Scorecard field-of-study measures generally cover federally aided completers who meet the reporting criteria. Small groups, continued study, geography, occupation, and whether someone is working full time can all affect how useful a figure is for comparison.

Earnings are only one part of a program decision. Students should also consider likely borrowing, graduate-school or licensing requirements, and the kinds of work available in their intended field.
