GCC's reported overall graduation rate for 2024-25 is 25%. That is a cohort measure, not the share of all students who eventually complete a credential.
The commonly reported federal graduation-rate measure follows first-time, full-time students seeking a degree or certificate and checks completion within 150% of a program's normal length. It can leave out outcomes for students who began part time or transferred in, groups that matter at a community college. A student comparing completion rates should keep those definitions in view and, where possible, examine outcomes for the credential and enrollment pace they actually plan to pursue.
Graduate earnings cannot be reduced to a dependable schoolwide salary figure for GCC. The earnings information identified for teacher education does not provide a reportable one-year-after-completion amount.
Even when a program-level earnings figure is available, its meaning depends on who was counted, when earnings were measured, and whether the statistic is a median or another measure. It may not describe a particular student's wages, job placement, or ability to work in a licensed occupation. Applicants weighing a career-focused program should pair any published earnings data with its credential requirements, local job openings, and the cost of completing the program.
