What are the graduation rates for students at College Unbound?

The reported student retention rate for College Unbound is 86%. Retention generally measures whether students in a defined entering group remain enrolled at the institution at the next measurement point; it is not the percentage who complete a degree.

That distinction is particularly important at a college serving students with prior credits and varied enrollment paths. A prospective student comparing completion outcomes should ask for a cohort definition that fits their circumstances - for example, the completion record of entering transfer students - and for the time period used. A four- or six-year graduation measure designed around first-time entrants may describe an adult-focused institution less fully than it describes a traditional residential college.

What is the earning potential for graduates at College Unbound?

A reliable one-year earnings figure for College Unbound's interdisciplinary field of study is not established here. Applicants should therefore avoid treating a salary estimate from another college, major, or graduate population as an outcome for this degree.

Even when a program-level earnings statistic is available, its meaning depends on whether it is a median or average, when earnings were measured, and which former students could be matched to employment records. Prior work experience is another consideration at an adult-focused college: earnings after study may reflect a career already underway, not solely the effect of a new credential.
