What are the graduation rates for students at LaGrange College?

LaGrange College's reported four-year graduation rate is 37%, while its six-year rate is 45%. These measures track defined cohorts of first-time, full-time degree-seeking students; they should not be read as the completion rate for every transfer, part-time, or returning student.

The reported overall graduation rate is 47%, and first-year retention is 67%. Retention measures whether students return for a second year, not whether they ultimately earn a degree. A six-year rate higher than the four-year rate also illustrates why a four-year budget and a longer completion scenario are both worth considering. These statistics describe past cohorts and do not explain why individual students stayed, transferred, or left.

What is the earning potential for graduates at LaGrange College?

Federal program-level earnings figures provide a limited view of early outcomes for some LaGrange College graduates. College Scorecard reporting lists approximately $67,478 for registered nursing and $34,184 for business administration, management, and operations one year after program completion.

These are reported median earnings for the federally aided graduates included in the relevant program measures, not starting-salary offers or predictions for every graduate. The figures cover different occupations and student populations, and a single year cannot show later advancement, graduate study, career changes, or differences in hours worked. Students comparing programs should consider licensing requirements, local job markets, borrowing, and the timing of the measure alongside the earnings number.
