What are the graduation rates for students at Queens University of Charlotte?

Queens' reported four-year graduation rate is 53%, and its six-year rate is 61%. These measures follow defined cohorts of first-time, full-time students pursuing a bachelor's degree; they do not describe the completion experience of every transfer, part-time, or graduate student.

The difference between the two rates shows that some students in the measured cohort finished after four years but within six. The reported first-year retention rate is 74%, meaning roughly three-quarters of the students in that measure continued into the following year. Prospective students should use these figures to ask practical questions about course availability, advising, and the likely time to degree in their own major - not as a prediction of an individual outcome.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Queens University of Charlotte?

Federal College Scorecard figures report median earnings measured about one year after completion for certain Queens programs. Among the reported figures, nursing is $59,160, finance is $52,438, and business administration is $49,296. These are observations for qualifying former students with measurable earnings, not starting-salary offers or guarantees for future graduates.

The same measure reports $34,515 for communication and media studies and $29,491 for biology. Comparisons need care: graduates may enter different occupations, continue their education, work in different locations, or have prior experience. The one-year measure also says little about later career progression. Students weighing a major can use these figures alongside program cost, licensure requirements, internship access, and their own career goals.
