What are the graduation rates for students at Southeastern University?

Southeastern University's reported six-year graduation rate was 44% in the 2024-25 institutional data. Its four-year rate was 35%. These measures describe defined cohorts of entering students; they are not the percentage of all students enrolled in that year who graduated.

The separately reported overall graduation rate was 43%, while first-year retention was 70%. The measures should not be combined or treated as interchangeable because their populations and reporting rules can differ. Transfer students, part-time students, and students in graduate programs may not be represented in a first-time undergraduate graduation cohort in the way a prospective transfer or adult learner expects.

For planning purposes, the gap between four- and six-year completion is a reminder that finishing later can add living expenses and, depending on enrollment, tuition costs. A student comparing programs should ask for the required course sequence and whether courses needed for the major are offered often enough to support the intended timeline.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Southeastern University?

Federal College Scorecard program data provide one-year-after-completion earnings figures for some Southeastern University fields. These are median earnings for the federally aided completers represented in a reported program measure, not a starting salary offered to every graduate.

For example, the reported one-year median was $57,715 for registered nursing. Business administration, management and operations had a reported figure of $32,742, while psychology had a reported figure of $22,456. These comparisons do not adjust for differences in occupation, location, work hours, further study, or the credentials a job requires.

One-year earnings offer a limited early-career snapshot. They do not measure an individual graduate's likely pay, lifetime income, satisfaction with the program, or the amount borrowed to attend. Students comparing fields should consider the credential and licensing pathway alongside earnings and their own estimated net cost.
