What are the graduation rates for students at Pacific College of Health and Science-California?

Pacific College's reported overall graduation rate was 77% in IPEDS 2024-25 data. That is a completion measure for a defined reporting cohort, not the probability that any newly admitted student - regardless of degree, transfer status, or enrollment pattern - will graduate.

Completion rates are most useful when the cohort and time allowed for completion match the applicant's circumstances. An adult learner entering with prior credits, for example, may have a different path from a first-time undergraduate; graduate clinical programs also follow different schedules. Applicants can ask their program for recent completion and licensure-exam results for the specific credential they are considering.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Pacific College of Health and Science-California?

A single earnings figure would not accurately describe the likely outcomes of Pacific College students across nursing, public health, and acupuncture-related pathways. Pay depends heavily on the credential earned, whether a graduate already held a professional license, location, hours worked, and subsequent experience.

Students evaluating a program should distinguish earnings after completion from an entry-level salary and from a reported median for people who received federal aid. Those measures can describe different groups. For a licensed profession, local wage information, licensing outcomes, total borrowing, and the cost of required postgraduate steps provide more useful context than an unqualified salary claim.
