What are the graduation rates for students at Notre Dame de Namur University?

NDNU's reported four-year and six-year graduation rates for the 2024-25 reporting period are both 7%. These are cohort measures, not the percentage of all NDNU students who completed a degree that year.

Federal graduation-rate measures generally follow a defined group of first-time, full-time students pursuing an undergraduate degree. They do not describe the typical experience of a graduate student or necessarily capture the outcomes of students who transfer in. NDNU's reported six-year rate was 32% in the preceding reporting year, so the sharp change warrants particular care when comparing cohorts. Applicants to a current program would benefit more from that program's recent completion counts, time-to-degree figures, and explanations of how withdrawals and transfers are recorded.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Notre Dame de Namur University?

Federal College Scorecard figures for NDNU report earnings measured one year after completion for graduates in certain fields. The reported field-level figures include $50,095 for business administration, $33,420 for psychology, $29,750 for communication and media studies, and $29,567 for sociology.

These figures describe eligible former students in the reported fields, not a salary that a new enrollee can expect. Field-level federal earnings measures may exclude graduates who are not working, remain enrolled, or do not meet the measure's coverage rules. They also reflect programs and graduates from earlier periods; some listed fields may not be open to new applicants. Location, occupation, prior work experience, further education, and the number of graduates represented all affect how useful a comparison will be.
