What are the graduation rates for students at Los Angeles Mission College?

The reported overall graduation rate for Los Angeles Mission College is 20% in the 2024-25 institutional data. This is a defined cohort measure, not the percentage of everyone who attends the college and eventually earns a credential.

Community-college graduation figures commonly follow first-time, full-time, degree- or certificate-seeking students for a specified period tied to the program's normal length. They do not fully describe students who enroll part time, enter with prior college credit, leave after meeting a short-term goal, or transfer before receiving a college award. The reported rate was 31% in the preceding year, illustrating why a single cohort should not be treated as a permanent forecast.

For an individual student, the more actionable questions are whether required courses are offered when needed, how many credits a plan requires, and how a change to part-time enrollment would affect the expected completion date.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Los Angeles Mission College?

There is no reliable college-wide, one-year-after-graduation earnings figure here that would support a specific salary claim for Los Angeles Mission College students. An associate degree, career certificate, and transfer pathway lead to different next steps, so a single earnings number would be especially limited.

Students comparing programs should look for outcomes tied to the exact credential and a clearly defined population and measurement period. Employment prospects also depend on the occupation, local labor market, prior experience, additional education, and whether a field requires a license. Earnings data can inform a decision, but it cannot predict an individual graduate's pay.
