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

The reported overall graduation rate for Strayer University-Virginia is 36% in 2024-25 institutional data. A reported four-year rate is 19%, and a reported six-year rate is also 19%. These measures need their cohort definitions to be interpreted correctly; they should not be combined or treated as a forecast for an individual student.

Federal graduation-rate measures commonly track a defined group of first-time, full-time students. Such a group may not resemble a transfer student or someone enrolling part time while working. The reported student retention rate is 75%, which addresses continued enrollment rather than degree completion. Applicants comparing programs should ask for outcomes relevant to their credential and enrollment pattern, along with the number of credits a transfer evaluation says they still need.
