What are the graduation rates for students at Malone University?

Malone University's reported six-year graduation rate is 45% for the measured first-time, full-time student cohort. Its four-year rate is 37%. These measures track whether students in the specified entering cohort completed within each period; they do not describe the completion prospects of every transfer, part-time, or graduate student.

The reported first-to-second-year retention rate is 76%, a different measure: it concerns whether students returned, not whether they eventually graduated. Malone's six-year graduation figure was 51% in the preceding reported year, so prospective students should pay attention to both the current result and variation between cohorts. Students comparing institutions should use rates defined for the same population and ask their intended department about course scheduling, required placements, and typical time to complete its particular degree.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Malone University?

Federal College Scorecard figures for selected Malone University fields report earnings measured about one year after completion. The figures are field-specific outcomes for graduates represented in the underlying federal data, not starting-salary offers or predictions for an individual student.

Reported examples include $58,487 for registered nursing, $41,492 for business administration, and $35,024 for accounting. Other reported fields include marketing at $34,351 and social work at $22,296. One-year earnings can reflect differences in occupation, hours worked, local labor markets, and whether graduates immediately enter further study. They also say little about later career progression. The figures should therefore be read alongside program costs, licensing requirements, and longer-term outcomes when those measures are available.
