Nazareth University

What are the graduation rates for students at Nazareth University?

Nazareth University's reported four-year graduation rate is 63%, and its six-year rate is 73%. These measures follow defined groups of first-time, full-time degree-seeking students; they do not describe every transfer, part-time, or graduate student.

The additional ten percentage points at six years indicate that some students complete after the four-year mark. Nazareth's reported retention rate is 85%, a separate measure of students continuing from one year to the next. Neither measure explains why an individual student stays or leaves. Applicants in majors with clinical placements, certification steps, or tightly sequenced courses should ask for a sample four-year plan and the program's own completion information.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Nazareth University?

College Scorecard field-of-study figures provide a limited view of earnings approximately one year after completion for graduates with reportable earnings records. They are not guaranteed starting salaries or an average for every person who studied a subject.

Reported one-year median earnings include $62,573 for registered nursing, $37,428 for marketing, and $35,358 for business administration and management. The corresponding figure for psychology is $29,684. Differences can reflect occupation, further study, geography, work hours, and the graduates represented in each field - not simply the value of a major.

Early-career earnings are particularly incomplete for fields where graduate education or licensing is common. Students can use these figures alongside program costs, likely borrowing, placement requirements, and longer-term career plans rather than treating one year of earnings as a lifetime return.
