LTU's reported six-year graduation rate is 60%, while its four-year rate is 30%. These figures describe the share of a defined first-time, full-time undergraduate cohort completing within each period; they are not the completion rates of every transfer, part-time, or graduate student.
The difference between the two rates matters for budgeting. A student who needs more than four years may face additional tuition and living expenses, even if they ultimately finish. The reported first-year retention rate is 78%, indicating the share of the measured entering cohort that continued into the following year; retention and graduation are different outcomes. Program sequencing, transferred credits, course availability, and an individual student's enrollment pattern can all change the time needed to finish, so applicants should examine a sample degree plan for their intended major.
College Scorecard field-of-study figures offer a limited view of earnings about one year after completion for graduates covered by the federal data. The reported one-year median is $78,211 in electrical, electronics, and communications engineering and $71,908 in mechanical engineering.
Other reported field medians include $64,007 in computer science and $73,712 in design and applied arts. These are observations for particular fields and measured cohorts, not starting-salary offers or promises to individual graduates. Credential level, sample size, employment status, location, further study, and the mix of jobs held can affect comparisons. A prospective student should match any figure to the relevant degree level and weigh it alongside program cost, likely borrowing, and the careers they actually want to pursue.
