What are the graduation rates for students at Sisseton Wahpeton College?

Sisseton Wahpeton College's reported overall graduation rate is 21% in the 2024-25 IPEDS figures. This is a cohort measure, not the percentage of everyone enrolled that year who finished a credential.

Federal graduation-rate reporting typically follows first-time, full-time, degree- or certificate-seeking students and asks whether they complete within 150% of the program's normal length. For a two-year program, that benchmark is generally three years. It therefore does not describe every part-time student, returning adult, or transfer student - groups that can be important at a small college. The reported rate was higher than the prior-year figure of 13%, but small entering cohorts can make year-to-year percentages move substantially. Applicants should ask about completion in their intended program and the course sequence needed to finish on time.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Sisseton Wahpeton College?

A reliable salary expectation for a particular Sisseton Wahpeton College program cannot be inferred from the available outcomes cited here. Federal program records identify fields such as behavioral sciences and business administration, but a field's name does not establish what a student will earn one year after leaving college.

A reported job-offer indicator is also not a wage measure: it concerns offers among a defined graduating population, not pay, employment duration, or the outcomes of all former students. Earnings depend on occupation, location, further education, work experience, and whether a person works full time. Students weighing the financial return of a credential should compare its total cost and likely transfer or licensing pathway with wage information for the specific jobs they hope to pursue.
