For the reported IPEDS cohort, CCU's four-year graduation rate was 58%, while its six-year rate was 63%. These measures track a defined group of first-time, full-time, degree-seeking undergraduates; they do not describe the completion experience of every transfer, part-time, online, or graduate student.
The reported overall graduation measure was 64%, and first-year retention was 84%. Retention measures whether students continue from one year to the next, not whether they eventually earn a degree. The four-year figure is particularly useful for estimating how often students in the measured cohort finish on a standard bachelor's-degree timeline. Individual timelines can differ because of transferred credits, major requirements, course availability, and enrollment intensity.
College Scorecard field-of-study figures offer a limited view of earnings about one year after completion, not a salary forecast for a new CCU student. The reported figures include $62,598 for registered nursing, $52,258 for accounting, $46,126 for business administration, and $32,671 for psychology.
These are field-level outcomes for the students included in the federal measure, not guaranteed earnings for all graduates of a major. Fields differ substantially in occupation, licensing requirements, location, and the share of students who continue into graduate study. When comparing majors, students should also examine typical entry requirements and likely borrowing rather than treating a single early-career earnings figure as a complete return-on-investment calculation.
