What are the graduation rates for students at Marian University-Wisconsin?

Marian University's reported four-year graduation rate is 30%, while its six-year rate is 44%. These measures describe the share of a defined entering cohort that completed a bachelor's degree within each time period; they are not the completion rate of every student who has attended Marian.

The six-year figure is below the reported national and Wisconsin comparison averages in the same data. Marian's reported first-year retention rate is 67%, meaning roughly two-thirds of the measured first-time cohort returned for the following year. Retention and graduation measure different stages of a student's path.

These figures are most useful as planning context for first-time, full-time bachelor's students. Transfer students, part-time students, and students in graduate programs may follow different timelines. Applicants to majors with clinical placements, prerequisite sequences, or limited course rotation should ask for a sample degree plan showing when required courses are offered.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Marian University-Wisconsin?

Available College Scorecard field-of-study figures describe median earnings approximately one year after completion for measured, federally aided completers in particular programs. They are not starting-salary offers, predictions for an individual student, or figures for every Marian graduate.

For example, the reported one-year median is $59,589 for registered nursing and related nursing studies, compared with $47,162 for business administration and management. The reported figures are $37,825 for psychology and $37,575 for social work. Differences can reflect occupation, further study, location, work hours, and which graduates have earnings in the underlying records; they should not be interpreted as the effect of a major alone.

Marian reports career support that includes individual counseling, résumé preparation, interview practice, job-search resources, employer recruitment, career events, and alumni networking. Those services can support a job search, but their availability is not an employment-outcome measure. Students comparing programs should consider likely credential requirements and borrowing alongside early earnings.
