What are the graduation rates for students at SUNY College of Agriculture and Technology at Cobleskill?

SUNY Cobleskill's reported overall graduation rate is 42%. Its separately reported bachelor's-degree completion measures are 46% within four years and 52% within six years; the reported student retention rate is 69%.

These figures should not be read as interchangeable measures for every student. Federal graduation-rate calculations follow defined entering cohorts and time limits, while retention tracks whether students continue from one year to the next. Associate-degree and bachelor's-degree pathways also have different normal completion periods. A student who transfers elsewhere or finishes outside a measured window may not count as a graduate in a particular rate.

For an applicant, the most useful follow-up is program-specific: ask how required courses are scheduled and whether internships, fieldwork or other requirements could affect the number of terms needed to finish.

Applicants comparing programs should consider earnings alongside completion, debt, licensing requirements and the kinds of work a degree prepares them to pursue.
