Oblate School of Theology

What are the graduation rates for students at Oblate School of Theology?

Standard four-year and six-year undergraduate graduation rates are not appropriate measures of Oblate School of Theology's graduate programs. Those federal measures generally follow cohorts of first-time, full-time undergraduates; the school reported no first-time degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduate enrollment in the 2024-25 data.

For a useful completion comparison, applicants should ask their prospective program about its expected time to degree and the completion outcomes of comparable graduate students. A part-time master's student, a full-time seminarian, and a doctoral student completing a dissertation may have substantially different timelines. Any reported rate needs its cohort, degree level, and measurement period to be meaningful.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Oblate School of Theology?

Earnings are an incomplete measure of the value of a graduate theology degree, particularly when students pursue ministry, nonprofit work, or roles with compensation structures that vary by employer. Applicants should not treat a general graduate salary estimate as the expected pay from an Oblate School of Theology program.

A useful earnings comparison would identify the degree, the graduates included, how long after completion pay was measured, and whether the figure is a median or an average. It would also need to account for students who continue in positions they held before enrolling. When evaluating financial return, compare likely career paths with the program's full cost and any borrowing, rather than using tuition alone.
