What are the graduation rates for students at Seton Hill University?

Seton Hill's reported four-year graduation rate is 57%, while its six-year rate is 67%. These measures track an entering cohort of first-time, full-time students pursuing a bachelor's degree; they should not be read as graduation rates for all transfer, part-time, or graduate students.

The six-year figure is higher because it allows additional time to finish. Seton Hill's reported first-year retention rate is 81%, meaning that share of the measured entering group continued into the following year. These outcomes can help applicants compare institutions, but they do not predict whether an individual student will graduate on time. Program sequencing, transferred credits, course availability, and personal circumstances can all affect a student's timeline.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Seton Hill University?

College Scorecard field-of-study figures give a limited view of earnings roughly one year after completion for graduates in programs with reportable data. They are historical measures for covered students, not starting-salary offers or predictions for everyone who enters a major.

Reported one-year median earnings include $41,469 for accounting, $40,899 for business administration, and $37,457 for marketing. Other reported examples are $34,341 for criminal justice and $28,595 for psychology. Differences may reflect occupation, location, further study, hours worked, and the characteristics of the graduates included - not just the degree itself.

Federal field-of-study measures have privacy and sample-size limitations, and many Seton Hill programs do not have a comparable published figure. Students weighing a major should use earnings alongside program costs, likely borrowing, licensure requirements, internship access, and the time needed for additional education.
