What are the graduation rates for students at Eureka College?

Eureka College's reported six-year graduation rate is 41% for the applicable first-time student cohort; its four-year rate is 30%. These measures follow defined groups of entering students over different periods. They are not predictions of whether a particular student will graduate.

The reported overall graduation measure is 42%, while first-year retention is 50%. Retention tracks whether entering students return for the following year, not whether they ultimately earn a degree. Graduation-rate measures can also leave out transfer students who enter later, so a transfer applicant should ask for outcomes relevant to their own route through the college.

The figures make degree planning especially consequential. Students can ask an adviser for a term-by-term plan, check when required courses are offered, and clarify what support is available if they need to change majors or take fewer credits. The published rates alone do not establish why students leave or take longer to finish.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Eureka College?

College Scorecard program figures describe median earnings for federally aided students who completed a particular program, measured one year after completion. They are early-career observations, not starting-salary offers or guarantees for future graduates.

Reported one-year median earnings include $35,252 for teacher education focused on specific levels and methods, $33,688 for business administration and management, and $30,898 for criminal justice and corrections. These are program-level measures, not a college-wide salary figure. A median means half of the measured earners were above the figure and half below it.

One year is a short window, especially for graduates who enter further study, change fields, or pursue work that requires licensing. Earnings also do not account by themselves for debt, local wages, hours worked, or job satisfaction. Eureka reports career support such as counseling, résumé preparation, interview practice, job-search resources, and alumni networking; access to those services should not be confused with a verified employment outcome.
