What are the graduation rates for students at Kairos University?

A conventional four- or six-year graduation-rate comparison offers limited insight into Kairos University's largely nontraditional mix of students and programs. Those measures generally follow a defined cohort of first-time, full-time undergraduates; they do not describe every transfer student, part-time learner, or graduate student.

The 2024-25 entering first-time undergraduate group contained just three enrolled students. With a cohort that small, one student's outcome would materially change a calculated percentage. Applicants comparing completion prospects should instead ask their intended program about its typical pace, required milestones, and how it tracks completion for students studying at a similar intensity.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Kairos University?

A Kairos University degree should not be evaluated against an assumed post-graduation salary. Earnings depend on the occupation, location, prior experience, hours worked, and whether a graduate enters paid employment or a ministry role supported in another way.

When comparing earnings figures from a college-outcomes tool, check exactly who is included and when income is measured. A figure for former students who received federal aid, for example, would not necessarily represent all graduates. A median is the midpoint of reported earnings, not a starting salary or a prediction for an individual. For Kairos applicants, the intended employer's credential requirements and the cost of finishing the specific program may be more actionable than a broad institution-level salary comparison.
