Reported graduation data shows a 58% four-year rate and a 69% six-year rate. These rates describe the share of a defined cohort of first-time, full-time undergraduates who completed a credential within each period; they do not describe the graduation prospects of every student who enrolls.
The reported first-year retention rate is 81%, meaning that roughly four in five students in the measured cohort returned the following fall. Transfer students, part-time students and adult learners can have different paths through college and are not fully represented by the standard first-time, full-time graduation measure. Students comparing outcomes across schools should use the same cohort definition and reporting period.
College Scorecard field-of-study figures provide a limited view of earnings approximately one year after program completion. Reported examples for St. Joseph's include $97,056 for registered nursing and $44,240 for accounting and related services; these are observations for the measured program populations, not salary offers or forecasts for an individual graduate.
The figures should be compared only after checking the credential level and population behind each program entry. Early earnings can reflect occupation, local labor markets, further study and the number of former students with earnings records. A one-year measure also says little about later career growth. Applicants weighing a major should consider licensing requirements, likely borrowing and the kinds of entry-level jobs available alongside any earnings statistic.
