What are the graduation rates for students at Saint Martin's University?

Reported graduation figures show that 43% of the relevant entering cohort completed within four years and 52% completed within six years. The overall reported graduation rate is also 52%.

These rates principally track first-time, full-time students who entered to pursue a bachelor's degree; they are not a completion forecast for every transfer, part-time, or graduate student. The reported first-year retention rate is 65%, measuring the share of first-time students who returned the following fall. Differences between four- and six-year rates show why a student comparing costs should consider the possibility of additional semesters, without assuming that a particular student will take six years to finish.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Saint Martin's University?

College Scorecard field-of-study figures provide a limited view of earnings roughly one year after completion, not a prediction of what an individual Saint Martin's student will earn. Among the reported program figures, registered nursing was $73,524, civil engineering was $62,495, computer science was $49,039, and psychology was $34,491.

These are program-level earnings measures for qualifying cohorts represented in the federal data, rather than salaries promised to all graduates. Results can differ with occupation, location, further study, prior experience, and the number of graduates captured in a cohort. Students comparing majors should also consider licensing requirements, employment patterns, and borrowing costs rather than treating a single early-career figure as a lifetime return on investment.

Saint Martin's career support is separate from these outcomes. Reported services include individual career counseling, résumé help, interview preparation, a job bank, employer events, and alumni networking opportunities; access to a service does not establish a graduate employment rate.
