Nebraska Indian Community College

What are the graduation rates for students at Nebraska Indian Community College?

NICC's reported overall graduation rate is 22% in the 2024-25 institutional data. This federal-style completion measure tracks a defined group of first-time, full-time students who finish within 150% of the normal time for their program; for a typical two-year program, that window is three years.

The figure should not be read as the share of all NICC students who eventually earn a credential. Part-time students, many transfer entrants, and students who complete after the measurement window are not represented in the same way. The reported rate was 17% in the preceding year, illustrating that results can change across cohorts. Prospective students can use the measure as a reason to ask an adviser how often required courses run and how the college supports a realistic completion plan, not as a prediction of their personal outcome.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Nebraska Indian Community College?

NICC enrollment does not imply a particular post-college salary. Earnings outcomes are most useful when tied to a clearly identified program, student population, measurement date, and statistic, such as a median rather than an average.

For example, a one-year-after-completion earnings measure for business administration would describe an observed group at an early point in their careers, not the pay every graduate receives. Local job availability, prior work experience, whether a student transfers for further education, and whether the reported group is large enough for a stable estimate all affect interpretation. Students evaluating financial return should compare potential occupations and further-education requirements with their expected out-of-pocket cost.
