Mississippi Christian University

What are the graduation rates for students at Mississippi Christian University?

The reported six-year graduation rate is 59%, while the four-year rate is 56%. These measures follow defined cohorts of first-time students; they are not the percentage of all current students, transfers, or graduate students who finish a degree.

The relatively small gap between the four- and six-year figures means that, within the measured cohort, comparatively few additional students graduated during years five and six. Reported first-year retention is 78%, a different measure describing continuation rather than completion. These figures help applicants assess timing and possible additional semesters of expense, but they do not establish why any individual student did or did not graduate.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Mississippi Christian University?

College Scorecard field-of-study figures report measured earnings about one year after completion for graduates in the covered federal-aid population, not a salary promised to every graduate. The reported figures include $56,926 for registered nursing, $43,337 for accounting, and $37,896 for business administration.

Other reported examples show how much outcomes can differ by field: criminal justice is $34,202, communication and media studies $28,765, and psychology $17,378. These are early-career observations, not lifetime earnings or a controlled comparison of program quality. The population captured, local labor market, graduate study, part-time work, and whether a field requires further licensing all affect interpretation.

The university reports career support such as individual counseling, résumé assistance, interview preparation, job listings, job fairs, and employer recruitment. Those are services students may use; their availability should not be read as a verified job-placement rate.
