What are the graduation rates for students at Oklahoma Wesleyan University?

Reported completion outcomes suggest that students should pay close attention to degree planning and persistence. The reported four-year graduation rate is 21%, while the reported six-year rate is 26%.

These time-based rates generally follow defined groups of first-time, full-time students, rather than every transfer, part-time, or returning adult student. A separately reported overall graduation figure is 35%; because its population or measurement definition may differ, it should not be treated as the six-year rate. The reported student retention rate is 50%, a separate measure concerning continued enrollment rather than graduation.

These figures do not establish why individual students leave or take longer to finish. Applicants can make the statistics more useful by asking their intended program for a term-by-term course plan, the frequency of required course offerings, and any program-specific completion information.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Oklahoma Wesleyan University?

Program-level earnings figures offer limited evidence about former students' early employment outcomes, not a salary forecast for a prospective student. College Scorecard figures identified for roughly one year after completion include $69,106 for registered nursing, $44,844 for general business or commerce, and $38,789 for theological and ministerial studies.

These figures describe federally reported outcomes for eligible former students in the named fields; they should not be read as the earnings of every graduate or as an individual starting salary. Employment hours, location, prior experience, further education, and the mix of students included can all affect the result. Comparing programs also requires attention to occupation and licensing requirements, not just the reported dollar amount.
