What are the graduation rates for students at North Park University?

North Park's reported six-year graduation rate is 58% for the tracked cohort of first-time, full-time students seeking a bachelor's degree. Its four-year rate is 44%. These figures follow an entering group over different periods; they are not the percentage of all students who graduate in a given calendar year.

The reported first-year retention rate is 62%, meaning roughly that share of the applicable entering cohort returned the following fall. Retention and graduation measures answer different questions, and neither describes every transfer, part-time, or graduate student. Applicants comparing programs should also examine course sequencing and any separate progression requirements that could affect their own time to degree.

What is the earning potential for graduates at North Park University?

Federal College Scorecard figures report earnings for some North Park programs about one year after completion. Among the reported fields, the median is $64,814 for registered nursing and $43,981 for business administration and management. The corresponding reported median for psychology is $31,061.

These are program-level figures for graduates represented in the federal earnings data, not starting-salary offers or predictions for every student. Coverage depends on factors such as available records and program size. The measure also captures an early point in a career: graduate study, occupation, location, hours worked, and experience can all affect earnings later. Students should weigh the figures alongside program cost, likely debt, and the credentials required for their intended work.
