What are the graduation rates for students at St. Thomas University?

St. Thomas University reports a 48% six-year graduation rate and a 37% four-year graduation rate in its 2024-25 institutional reporting. These measures follow a defined cohort of first-time, full-time degree-seeking students; they do not describe the completion rate of every transfer, part-time, or graduate student.

The reported first-year retention rate is 57%, meaning the measure tracks whether students in its defined first-time cohort returned the following fall. Graduation and retention statistics are useful planning indicators, but they do not explain why individual students leave or how a particular major's students progress. An applicant with a fixed graduation target should review the intended major's course rotation, advising arrangements, and any prerequisites that could affect time to degree.

What is the earning potential for graduates at St. Thomas University?

College Scorecard reporting lists $41,622 in median earnings one year after completion for St. Thomas University's business administration, management, and operations graduates in the reported group. This is a field-specific, early-career measure - not a university-wide starting salary or a promise about any individual graduate's pay.

The measure reflects graduates included in the federal earnings data and does not capture every person's employment circumstances. Pay can vary with occupation, location, prior work experience, further study, and the job market. Prospective students should use the figure alongside program costs, likely borrowing, and information about the careers they intend to pursue.
