Great Lakes Christian College's reported overall graduation rate is 36% in the 2024-25 institutional figures. Its reported four-year and six-year rates are each 32%. These measures describe defined groups of entering students, not the probability that any individual applicant will graduate.
The college's reported student retention rate is 49%. Retention concerns whether students continue from one year to the next; it is not a graduation rate. Applicants comparing colleges should pay attention to the cohort and time period behind each measure, particularly at a small institution where a modest change in the number of students can noticeably change a percentage. Transfers and part-time students may also have experiences that are not fully represented by first-time-student graduation measures.
Graduate earnings are best evaluated by program, cohort, and measurement date, not by assuming that one salary applies to every Great Lakes Christian College degree. A one-year-after-completion earnings measure, for example, describes earnings at an early career point; it does not establish lifetime income or what a new applicant will make.
Students comparing career paths should examine the work associated with a specific major, whether further education or licensure is typically required, and the earnings measure's underlying population. Ministry, teaching-related, business, and other occupations can have substantially different career structures. An occupational wage estimate is useful context, but it should not be presented as the earnings of this college's graduates.
