What are the graduation rates for students at Parker University?

Reported 2024-25 graduation figures show an overall rate of 74% and a four-year rate of 50% for Parker University. The reported six-year rate is also 50%. These figures should not be treated as three measurements of the same group of students.

Graduation-rate measures can use different entering cohorts, degree levels, and time windows. They also generally do not describe every transfer student or graduate student. Parker's reported first-year retention rate is 50%, a separate measure of whether students continue into the following year, not whether they eventually graduate. Because Parker enrolls students in programs of different lengths, applicants will get a clearer picture by asking for completion and, where relevant, licensing-exam information for the specific program they plan to enter.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Parker University?

A reliable one-year earnings figure cannot be stated for the Parker University fields listed in the available College Scorecard figures. That means there is no sound basis here for assigning a typical starting salary to its chiropractic, health-sciences, technology, or other graduates.

Even when program earnings figures are published, students should check whom they cover and when earnings were measured. Federal outcomes may reflect only graduates with earnings observable in particular administrative records; they are not a forecast for an individual. Occupation, location, additional training, licensure, and debt all affect how useful an earnings figure is when evaluating a degree.
