Mars Hill University's reported four-year graduation rate is 34%, while its six-year rate is 45%. These measures follow a defined group of first-time, full-time students who began a bachelor's degree; they are not the completion rates for every transfer, part-time, or returning adult student.
The reported six-year rate rose from 42% in the preceding year to 45% in the 2024-25 reporting data. The first-year retention rate is 69%, meaning roughly seven in ten students in the measured entering group returned the following fall. Neither figure explains why an individual student leaves or takes longer to graduate. For a prospective student, a useful follow-up is to compare the required course sequence and advising arrangements in the intended major with a realistic financial plan for four years or longer.
College Scorecard program data report earnings for some Mars Hill fields one year after completion. The figures are early-career observations for the students captured by the federal measure, not promised starting salaries or earnings for every graduate.
These program-level figures should not be read as an overall university salary average. Earnings can differ with occupation, location, hours worked, additional education, and the number of graduates represented in a field. Students weighing a program should consider its likely career paths, licensing requirements, and total borrowing alongside any reported earnings.
