Seattle Central College

What are the graduation rates for students at Seattle Central College?

Seattle Central's reported overall graduation rate was 32% in the 2024-25 institutional data. This is a cohort-based completion measure, not the percentage of everyone enrolled at the college who eventually earns a credential.

Federal graduation-rate measures typically follow a defined group of first-time, full-time, credential-seeking students and assess completion within a specified period relative to a program's normal length. That leaves out many students who attend part time, enter with transfer credit, or follow other paths. It also does not fully describe students who transfer before completing a Seattle Central credential. The reported rate is useful for comparing similarly defined cohorts, but applicants weighing a particular program should also ask about its course sequence, required class availability, and program-specific completion measures.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Seattle Central College?

A College Scorecard program-level figure reports $71,172 in earnings one year after completion for the Health Services/Allied Health/Health Sciences, General field at Seattle Central. It is a figure for a defined program and reporting population, not an earnings forecast for every Seattle Central student or every health-care occupation.

Program earnings data can exclude graduates whose earnings cannot be measured under the federal methodology, and a field-of-study category may contain people in different jobs. Pay also varies with prior experience, additional credentials, hours worked, and local labor markets. Students comparing programs should consider the credential required for their intended job and any licensing steps alongside the reported earnings figure; a one-year measure cannot show an entire career trajectory.
