What are the graduation rates for students at Talladega College?

Talladega College's reported six-year graduation rate is 31%, while its four-year rate is 20%. These measures track a defined cohort of first-time, full-time students seeking a degree; they do not describe the completion rate of every transfer, part-time, or returning student.

The reported first-year retention rate is 54%, meaning just over half of the measured first-time students returned the following fall. Completion figures can vary considerably between entering cohorts, and a six-year measure allows more time than a four-year measure. Neither statistic explains why an individual student left or how long a particular major will take. Applicants can use the figures to prompt specific questions about course availability, advising, academic support, and the likely schedule for their intended degree.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Talladega College?

Potential earnings after Talladega College depend heavily on occupation, location, further education, and work experience. A college-wide salary claim would obscure those differences and should not be treated as a forecast for an individual graduate.

When comparing published earnings figures, students should check whether a measure covers all graduates or only a defined group, such as former students who received federal aid and are working. They should also check whether the figure is a median or an average and whether it is measured one year after graduation or at another point. For career planning, those definitions matter as much as the dollar amount. Licensure requirements, graduate-school plans, and typical pay in a chosen occupation offer useful additional context.
