What are the graduation rates for students at Strayer University-South Carolina?

Reported completion outcomes for Strayer University-South Carolina warrant close attention to the population and time period behind each measure. The 2024-25 institutional figures show an overall graduation rate of 17%; separately reported four-year and six-year rates are both 0%.

These figures should not be read as interchangeable measures of every student's chance of finishing. Federal graduation-rate calculations generally follow defined groups of first-time, full-time students, while many adult and transfer students fall outside those groups. Different rates can also refer to different entering cohorts or award levels. Small cohorts can make year-to-year changes look especially dramatic.

A reported retention rate of 100% measures a different outcome: continued enrollment over a specified interval, not degree completion. Applicants seeking a fuller picture should ask for recent completion information for their intended degree level and enrollment pattern, including transfer students and part-time students where available.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Strayer University-South Carolina?

College Scorecard program figures provide a limited view of earnings roughly one year after completion. For example, reported figures include $66,456 for information science/studies, $59,686 for general computer and information sciences, and $47,363 for accounting and related services.

Other reported program figures are $47,245 for general business/commerce and $38,520 for criminal justice and corrections. These are program-level measures for the population captured by the federal earnings data, not starting-salary offers to every graduate. The credential level, number of people represented, employment circumstances, location, and any aggregation used in a Scorecard record all matter when interpreting a figure.

One-year earnings also omit important parts of the decision, including tuition paid, borrowing, whether a student completed the degree, and how earnings change later. Applicants comparing programs should match figures to the exact credential and reporting record rather than treating a subject-area number as a prediction of their own pay.
