A current graduation rate that reliably describes students who entered Northeastern University Oakland after the 2022 combination is not established by the available campus figures. The older reported rates belong to an earlier institutional context and should not be presented as outcomes for today's Northeastern Oakland entrants.
For example, a six-year graduation rate follows a particular entering group of first-time, full-time students for up to six years; it is not the share of all current students expected to graduate. This distinction is consequential at a recently reorganized campus, especially when students may follow pathways involving more than one Northeastern location. Applicants comparing completion outcomes should seek the cohort definition, entry year, and campus or program coverage of any rate they encounter. They should also ask for the expected degree timeline for their specific pathway rather than treating a university-wide figure as an Oakland-specific forecast.
Field-of-study earnings figures associated with the campus vary substantially, but they should not be read as predictions for a new Northeastern University Oakland student. College Scorecard figures supplied for measurement one year after graduation include $95,288 for computer and information sciences, $65,358 for business or commerce, and $39,443 for English language and literature.
These are program-level reported earnings measures for graduates with earnings data, not starting salaries offered to every graduate or outcomes guaranteed by a major. College Scorecard earnings typically draw on federally aided students whose earnings can be matched to federal records; they do not represent every graduate. Because the campus changed institutional identity in 2022, figures for older cohorts may largely reflect Mills-era students and programs rather than current Northeastern Oakland offerings. Small program groups, further education, local labor markets, and differences in work experience can also affect comparisons. Before using a figure to evaluate a current degree, check its cohort, program definition, and whether the program is still offered in the same form.
