What are the graduation rates for students at Campbellsville University?

Campbellsville University's reported six-year graduation rate is 42% for the relevant first-time, full-time undergraduate cohort. Its four-year rate is 30%. These measures follow defined entering groups; they are not the percentage of all current students - including transfer, part-time, and graduate students - who will earn a degree.

The reported first-year retention rate is 64%, meaning that roughly two-thirds of the measured first-time cohort returned the following fall. Retention and graduation figures answer different questions, and neither identifies why an individual student leaves, transfers, pauses study, or finishes later. Applicants should compare these institution-wide measures with the course sequence, advising arrangements, and expected completion time for their own program.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Campbellsville University?

College Scorecard program-level figures provide a limited look at earnings approximately one year after completion for graduates represented in its federally aided student records. They are reported measures of past students' earnings, not starting-salary offers or predictions for an individual graduate.

Among the reported fields, the one-year figure is $58,449 for registered nursing and $34,410 for business/commerce. Teacher education for specific levels and methods is reported at $31,700, while social work is $31,569. The figures differ by field, and the timing is too early to describe long-term career earnings.

Program figures may combine graduates whose jobs, locations, hours, and further-study choices differ. When comparing degrees, students should also consider program cost, licensing requirements, employment options, and whether the reported category precisely matches the credential they intend to pursue.
