What are the graduation rates for students at Chamberlain University-California?

A conventional four- or six-year graduation rate for Chamberlain University-California is not reported in the available campus figures. The reported first-year retention rate is 100%, but retention answers a different question: it concerns whether students continued, not whether they ultimately completed a degree.

The campus's first-time entering group is very small, while transfer students make up a substantial part of its incoming population. Standard graduation measures often follow first-time, full-time entrants and can therefore leave out many students who take a transfer route into nursing. For a fuller picture, applicants should seek the campus and program's most recent BSN completion figures, NCLEX-RN pass rates, and the definitions and cohort sizes behind each measure.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Chamberlain University-California?

College Scorecard field-of-study data report $70,883 in earnings one year after completion for the nursing field associated with Chamberlain University-California. This is a reported median for the measured group, not a starting salary promised to every graduate.

Field-of-study earnings measures generally draw on federally aided completers with available earnings records; they do not represent every former student. The figure also does not show a student's borrowing, living costs, hours worked, local wages, or earnings later in a career. Nursing applicants should use it alongside program cost, completion and licensure outcomes, and the pay offered for the specific roles and locations they are considering.
