Methodist University's reported four-year graduation rate is 29%, and its six-year rate is 43%, according to 2024-25 institutional reporting. Its reported first-year retention rate is 65%.
Graduation rates typically follow a defined cohort of first-time, full-time degree-seeking undergraduates; they do not describe every transfer, part-time, or returning adult student. A six-year rate therefore allows more time than a four-year rate but is not a prediction for an individual applicant. Students estimating their own timeline should look closely at required course sequences, the frequency with which courses are offered, and how accepted transfer credits count toward their degree.
College Scorecard program data report earnings measured one year after completion for certain Methodist University fields. Reported figures include $58,217 for registered nursing, $36,332 for business administration, and $28,117 for criminal justice.
These are program-level outcomes for graduates represented in the Scorecard's federal-aid-based earnings measure, not starting-salary offers or earnings guaranteed to future graduates. The measure does not capture every graduate, and a one-year figure can be affected by occupation, location, further study, and whether a field requires postgraduate training. Comparisons are most useful between similarly defined programs and measurement periods - not as a simple ranking of majors.
For career planning, Methodist University reports services including individual counseling, résumé assistance, interview preparation, job fairs, employer recruitment, and alumni networking. Access to those services is distinct from a verified employment or salary outcome.
