For the IPEDS 2024-25 reporting period, CEM College-San Juan's reported overall graduation rate is 86%. Its reported six-year rate is also 86%, while the four-year figure is 0%. These measures should be read by their defined student cohorts and time windows, not as a prediction that any individual entrant will finish.
The college also reports a 20% student retention rate. Retention generally tracks whether a defined group returns for a subsequent period; graduation follows an entering cohort over a longer span. The rates can therefore differ sharply, particularly at a small institution where a few students can move a percentage substantially.
Applicants comparing programs should ask for completion and withdrawal figures for their intended credential, the cohort years behind those figures, and the typical time needed to finish required clinical courses. For a licensed occupation, program completion and licensing-examination results answer different questions.
A College Scorecard field-of-study figure dated October 2026 lists $19,193 in earnings one year after completion for registered nursing and related nursing fields associated with CEM College-San Juan. It is an outcome for a defined field and measurement point, not a promised starting salary for everyone who enters the program.
That figure should not be described as the pay of every graduate or treated as a complete picture of a nursing career. Earnings measures can reflect differences in employment, hours worked, location, further study, and the people whose earnings can be measured. The figure's statistical definition and underlying cohort should be checked in the College Scorecard before comparing it with another institution's outcome.
For a prospective nursing student, licensing eligibility, examination results, program completion, and the cost of borrowing are important alongside an earnings figure. A first-year measure cannot establish what a person will earn later in a career.
