What are the graduation rates for students at Paine College?

Graduation rates at Paine College are notably low, with only 22% of students completing their programs. This rate places the college in the bottom 5% nationwide. When broken down by gender, 22% of men and 21% of women graduate, both figures similarly categorized as very low. The four-year graduation rate is even more concerning, at just 6%, indicating that very few students finish their degrees within the traditional timeframe. Over a six-year period, the graduation rate improves slightly to 22%, but this remains among the lowest compared to other institutions.

Retention rates, an important measure of student persistence from one year to the next, also stand at a very low 54%. This suggests that almost half of enrolled students do not continue their studies beyond their initial year at the college, which likely contributes to the low overall graduation percentages.
