What are the graduation rates for students at Paul Quinn College?

Paul Quinn College's reported four-year graduation rate is 17%, and its six-year rate is 22%. Its reported overall graduation rate is 27%. These figures use defined student cohorts and measurement periods; they do not predict whether a particular student will graduate.

The four- and six-year measures generally follow first-time, full-time students seeking a bachelor's degree. They therefore do not describe every transfer student, part-time student, or returning adult learner. The reported student retention rate is 49%, another cohort measure that tracks continuation rather than degree completion.

For a prospective student, the practical questions behind these figures are whether required courses are offered when needed, how advising handles a change of major, and what academic and financial support is available if progress stalls. The rates alone do not establish why students left or took longer to finish.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Paul Quinn College?

Published field-of-study information does not establish a reliable one-year-after-graduation earnings figure for Paul Quinn College programs. Students should not treat a salary associated with a major elsewhere as a measured outcome for this college.

Even when federal program-level earnings figures are published, they typically describe a defined group of former students at a specified point after attendance, not every graduate's starting salary. Small cohorts, privacy protections, further study, location, occupation, and employment status can limit what such figures reveal. A useful career comparison combines any available outcomes with the program's curriculum, internships or work experience, graduation prospects, and total borrowing.
