Ohio State University-Newark Campus

What are the graduation rates for students at Ohio State University-Newark Campus?

Reported completion figures for Ohio State Newark require unusual care because many students begin at a regional campus and later pursue degrees elsewhere within Ohio State. In IPEDS 2024-25 reporting, the campus's overall reported graduation rate is 29%.

The reported four-year and six-year figures are substantially lower, at 1% and 3%, respectively. These figures should not be treated as interchangeable measures of the same students' chances of earning an Ohio State degree. Federal graduation measures follow defined entering cohorts and reporting locations; a student who changes campuses can complicate interpretation of a Newark-specific completion figure. The reported retention figure is 25%, but it too should be interpreted alongside the possibility of campus movement.

For a useful personal comparison, ask whether the intended degree can be completed at Newark, what a campus change would require and what completion outcomes apply to that particular pathway. None of these aggregate rates predicts an individual student's result.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Ohio State University-Newark Campus?

College Scorecard field-of-study figures offer a limited view of early earnings associated with Ohio State Newark programs. The reported measure concerns earnings approximately one year after completion, not a salary promised to every student or a lifetime return on a degree.

• Business/commerce, general: $37,208.
• Social work: $30,962.
• Psychology, general: $30,355.
• English language and literature, general: $27,536.
• History: $26,168.

These field figures reflect the Scorecard's covered population and reporting rules; they should not be interpreted as earnings for all graduates or as a controlled comparison between majors. Employment, further study, location and prior experience can all affect early earnings. Students weighing programs should consider the work each credential qualifies them to seek, any graduate education or license it requires, and the debt they expect to take on.
