The college's reported overall graduation rate is 100%, and its reported retention rate is also 100%. These figures describe particular reporting cohorts; they are not a prediction that every newly admitted student will finish.
Graduation-rate measures generally follow a defined group of entering students over a specified period, so they may not describe the experience of transfer students in the same way. That limitation matters here because transfer enrollment is substantial and the first-time entering cohort is very small. Applicants comparing completion outcomes should ask how many students were in the measured cohort and request results specific to the nursing pathway and entry route they plan to use.
A single reliable one-year-after-graduation earnings figure should not be inferred for St. Joseph's College of Nursing students from the available outcome measures. Job offers, nursing licensure, employment, and earnings are different outcomes measured at different points in time.
A prospective nurse's pay can depend on whether they pass the licensing examination, obtain a registered-nurse position, work full-time, and choose particular shifts, employers, or locations. When comparing programs, use any published earnings measure only if it identifies the graduates included, the measurement date, and whether the amount is a median or an average. Pair it with questions about licensure results and the cost of completing the degree.
