What are the graduation rates for students at South Florida State College?

South Florida State College's reported overall graduation rate is 48% in the 2024-25 institutional data. The figure is a measure for a defined entering cohort and reporting period, not the probability that any individual student will graduate.

Federal graduation-rate measures generally focus on first-time, full-time students who complete within a specified period. That framing can leave out much of a community college's experience, including part-time students, returning adults, and students who transfer before finishing a credential. Applicants should also consider their intended program's course sequence, transfer plans, and the time they can realistically devote to study.

What is the earning potential for graduates at South Florida State College?

A reported College Scorecard field-of-study figure places median earnings for measured business administration completers at $28,161 about one year after completion. This is a program-level, early-career measure - not a salary promised to a new student or an earnings estimate for every SFSC graduate.

College Scorecard earnings measures depend on which federally aided former students have usable earnings records. They can be affected by a small program cohort, continued schooling, local labor markets, and whether graduates work full time. A prospective student comparing programs should pair this figure with credential level, likely occupation, licensing needs, and longer-term career options.
