What are the graduation rates for students at National University of Health Sciences?

A single four- or six-year undergraduate graduation rate would not adequately describe NUHS's mix of undergraduate, graduate, and professional study. The conventional federal graduation-rate measure follows a defined cohort of first-time, full-time undergraduates, so it should not be read as the completion rate for chiropractic or other professional students.

For a more useful program-level picture, applicants can ask how NUHS defines and reports completion for their intended degree: the entering cohort, normal program length, students who withdraw or transfer, and the time allowed for graduation all affect the result. Professional applicants may also want the relevant licensing-examination outcomes, with the reporting year and population clearly identified. No one outcome measure, by itself, establishes the quality of instruction or predicts an individual student's result.

What is the earning potential for graduates at National University of Health Sciences?

The College Scorecard field-of-study figure reported for NUHS's Biology, General program is $24,084 one year after completion. It is a field-specific, early-career measure - not an institution-wide salary figure or an estimate of earnings from a chiropractic or naturopathic doctorate.

Its interpretation depends on the Scorecard's underlying cohort and earnings methodology; the figure should not be treated as a guaranteed salary or as a complete picture of all graduates. One year is also a short window for students who continue into professional education rather than enter full-time employment immediately. Compare earnings only with figures that identify the same credential level, field, time since completion, and measured population.
