What are the graduation rates for students at Maranatha Baptist University?

In IPEDS 2024-25 reporting, Maranatha Baptist University's six-year graduation rate was 64% for the tracked first-time, full-time undergraduate cohort. Its four-year rate was 52%. These measures show how many students in a defined entering group completed within each period; they do not represent every student who attends the university.

The reported first-year retention rate was 88%, measuring the share of a separate entering cohort that returned the following fall. Transfer students, part-time students, and adults who begin outside the tracked first-time, full-time cohort may follow different paths that these graduation rates do not fully describe. Students comparing institutions should use the same cohort definition and time period for each school.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Maranatha Baptist University?

College Scorecard field-of-study figures provide limited evidence about earnings after completing selected Maranatha Baptist University programs. The reported median earnings one year after completion were $57,981 for registered nursing, $35,116 for business administration and management, and $33,249 for liberal arts and general studies.

These are program-level figures for the Scorecard's measured, federally aided graduate cohorts with earnings records - not starting-salary offers or predictions for every graduate. They describe different fields with different job markets and may include people working in different locations or occupations. A one-year measure also misses later career changes, further study, and the effect of individual borrowing. Applicants should compare the figure for their intended program with its likely costs and any licensing requirements.
