Kutztown University of Pennsylvania

What are the graduation rates for students at Kutztown University of Pennsylvania?

About 54% of the reported first-time, full-time bachelor's-degree cohort completed a degree within six years. The four-year rate was 41%. These measures follow an entering cohort over different time spans; they do not mean that every student who has not graduated after four years will finish by year six.

The reported first-year retention rate was 78%, measuring the share of an entering group that returned the following fall. Graduation-rate cohorts generally exclude students who began elsewhere and transferred in, so they are not a complete picture of transfer outcomes. Prospective students should consider course sequencing, credit loads, and the requirements of their intended major when estimating their own time to degree.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Kutztown University of Pennsylvania?

Federal College Scorecard field-of-study figures provide a limited view of earnings measured roughly one year after completion for graduates represented in the relevant federally aided cohorts. They are not starting-salary offers, predictions for an applicant, or a measure of every graduate.

Among the reported figures, the one-year median is $45,402 for computer and information sciences and $42,033 for special education. The corresponding figure is $39,679 for business administration and $28,268 for psychology. Differences should not be read as the effect of the major alone: occupations, further study, location, hours worked, and the composition of each reporting cohort can all matter. One year is also too early to describe a lifetime earning trajectory.

Kutztown's career services and these federal earnings measures answer different questions. Career counseling describes support a student can use; earnings data describe reported outcomes for qualifying past cohorts, without establishing what caused them.
