What are the graduation rates for students at Florida Gateway College?

Florida Gateway College's reported overall graduation rate is 54% in IPEDS 2024-25 data. This is a cohort measure, not the percentage of everyone currently enrolled who will graduate.

Federal graduation-rate measures typically follow first-time, full-time, degree- or certificate-seeking students and count completion within a defined period, commonly 150% of a program's normal length. That scope can leave out many transfer and part-time students, both relevant groups at a public college. FGC's reported rate was 57% in the preceding year; the change alone does not identify a cause or predict any individual student's outcome.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Florida Gateway College?

A college-wide salary figure would be a poor substitute for evaluating the earnings associated with a particular Florida Gateway College program. Pay after study depends on occupation, credential, location, hours worked, prior experience, and whether a student continues their education.

When comparing College Scorecard earnings measures, students should check whether a figure describes former students who received federal aid, how long after entry or completion it was measured, and whether it is a median rather than an average. Program-level figures may represent small groups or combine different employment situations. Nursing, teacher education, and natural-resources pathways also lead to different kinds of jobs; a salary comparison is most useful alongside licensing requirements, local job openings, and the total cost of completing the credential.
