Brigham Young University-Hawaii

What are the graduation rates for students at Brigham Young University-Hawaii?

Reported completion outcomes show that 29% of the measured first-time cohort graduated within four years and 50% within six years. A separately reported overall graduation figure is 53%; these measures should not be treated as interchangeable because reporting definitions and cohorts can differ.

The reported first-year retention rate is 74%, meaning roughly three in four students in the relevant cohort returned for the next year under that measure. Graduation rates generally track specified entering groups rather than every student at the university, so they do not describe the individual prospects of a transfer student or someone attending under different circumstances. For applicants budgeting for a four-year degree, the gap between four- and six-year completion is a reason to examine course sequencing and the cost of additional terms.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Brigham Young University-Hawaii?

Field-level College Scorecard figures report median earnings measured about one year after completion for certain groups of federally aided students. The reported figure is $40,549 for business administration, management, and operations; the corresponding figure for cultural studies, critical theory, and analysis is $22,125.

These are field-specific, short-term measures - not starting-salary offers or predictions for every graduate. They can reflect differences in occupation, location, further study, and the students included in the federal data. A one-year earnings figure also cannot show how income changes later in a career. Applicants comparing majors should consider these limitations alongside program content, employment goals, and total borrowing.
