What are the graduation rates for students at Interior Designers Institute?

Older reported graduation figures for IDI vary sharply by cohort: the reported rate was 50% for 2020 and 100% for 2022. Those figures should not be read as a prediction that a new student will graduate.

Graduation rates generally follow a defined group of entering students over a specified period; they do not necessarily describe every student attending the college. At an institution enrolling about 100 students overall, a small graduating cohort can produce a large percentage change when only a few students have different outcomes. Applicants comparing programs should ask IDI for the most recent completion figures for their intended credential, including the cohort size and the time allowed for completion.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Interior Designers Institute?

The U.S. Department of Education's College Scorecard reports a $42,627 earnings figure for IDI's Design and Applied Arts field one year after completion. It is a field-level outcome for a measured group, not a starting-salary offer or a forecast for every graduate.

College Scorecard earnings measures depend on which former students can be matched to employment and tax records, and they may combine people with different jobs, hours, and locations. The reported figure alone does not establish what a particular interior designer earns or whether the work is directly related to the degree. Students should consider it alongside program cost, borrowing, career goals, and the availability of more detailed outcomes for the credential they plan to pursue.
