What are the graduation rates for students at Flagler College?

Flagler College's reported four-year graduation rate is 45%, while its six-year rate is 56%. These measures follow a defined group of first-time, full-time students seeking a bachelor's degree; they do not describe every transfer student, part-time student, or graduate student.

The additional time between the two measures matters when budgeting: some students complete within six years but not four. Flagler's reported first-year retention rate is 76%, meaning roughly three-quarters of the measured entering group returned the following fall. Neither statistic explains why an individual student leaves or takes longer to finish.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Flagler College?

College Scorecard program figures show substantial differences in measured earnings one year after completion among former Flagler students. These are program-level medians for federally aided completers with measurable earnings, not salary offers or predictions for every graduate.

For example, the reported one-year median is $40,277 for teacher education focused on specific levels and methods, compared with $35,691 for business administration and $25,016 for psychology. These figures should not be read as a ranking of academic quality. Work location, occupation, further education, and the size and composition of the measured group can all affect a result. Early-career earnings also leave out longer-term outcomes and the cost of any graduate study needed for a chosen profession.
