What are the graduation rates for students at Monroe University?

Monroe University's reported overall graduation rate is 57%. Separately reported bachelor's-degree measures show a four-year graduation rate of 56% and a six-year rate of 60%.

Graduation-rate measures follow defined groups of entering students over specified periods; they are not the share of everyone currently enrolled who will eventually graduate. The overall, four-year, and six-year figures should therefore not be added together or treated as interchangeable. A reported first-year retention rate of 67% measures a different question: whether students continue into a subsequent year.

Transfer students, part-time students, and students changing programs may not be represented in the same way as first-time, full-time entrants in a standard graduation cohort. Applicants comparing outcomes should seek the measure closest to their intended credential and enrollment pattern.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Monroe University?

College Scorecard program figures report median earnings one year after completion for eligible former students in particular fields. They are observations about measured groups, not starting-salary offers or predictions for an individual graduate.

  • Accounting and related services: $37,763
  • Computer and information sciences, general: $37,201
  • Public health: $36,237
  • Criminal justice and corrections: $33,162
  • Business administration, management and operations: $32,082
  • Hospitality administration and management: $30,469

These figures refer to fields of study, and the underlying groups may differ in credential level, size, employment patterns, and location. They do not account for every completer or reveal how much each person borrowed. A useful comparison pairs earnings with the specific credential's tuition, completion outcomes, and likely borrowing, rather than treating a single early-career number as a measure of lifetime value.
