What are the graduation rates for students at Clinton College?

Clinton College's reported overall graduation rate was 14% in IPEDS 2024-25 data, and its reported student retention rate was 58%. These are important indicators, but they answer different questions: graduation measures completion for a defined entering group, while retention concerns continued enrollment over a shorter period.

The same reporting presents a four-year graduation rate of 83% and a six-year rate of 100%. Those figures should not be interpreted as saying that nearly all of Clinton College's students graduate: rates can describe different cohorts, degree levels, and measurement windows. At an institution with 126 enrolled students, small underlying groups may also produce sharp year-to-year swings. Applicants comparing outcomes should ask for the cohort sizes and the completion rate for the specific degree they intend to pursue.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Clinton College?

There is no defensible single salary figure that describes what a Clinton College student can expect to earn after completing a degree. Earnings depend heavily on field, occupation, location, further education, and whether a former student is working full time.

One-year post-completion earnings would be a particularly narrow measure for fields in which graduates commonly pursue additional study or take time to enter a profession. Applicants evaluating a major can compare its curriculum with entry-level job requirements and ask the college what career advising, internships, and graduate-school preparation are available. None of those activities, however, constitutes a verified employment or salary outcome.
