Texas A&M University-Texarkana

What are the graduation rates for students at Texas A&M University-Texarkana?

The reported six-year graduation rate at Texas A&M University-Texarkana is 30%, while its four-year rate is 17%. These measures generally follow a defined cohort of first-time, full-time students seeking a bachelor's degree; they should not be read as the completion rate for every student who attends.

The reported first-year retention rate is 64%, meaning roughly two-thirds of the students in the measured cohort returned the following fall. Graduation measures are especially important to interpret carefully at a university with substantial transfer enrollment: transfer entrants, students who leave and graduate elsewhere, and some part-time students are not represented in the standard first-time, full-time graduation cohort. A prospective student can make the figures more useful by asking an adviser for a term-by-term plan and checking how often required courses are offered.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Texas A&M University-Texarkana?

College Scorecard program figures provide a limited view of earnings approximately one year after completion, not a forecast of what a particular graduate will make. The reported figures include $33,604 for interdisciplinary studies, $31,904 for biology, and $30,033 for business administration.

Other reported one-year figures include $30,022 for criminal justice, $28,500 for liberal arts and general studies, and $27,757 for psychology. Scorecard earnings measures reflect covered graduates with available earnings records rather than every graduate, and program-level estimates can be affected by small cohorts. They also do not capture the full value of graduate study, later career progression, geographic differences, or work outside the measured population. Students comparing majors should weigh these figures alongside likely occupations, additional credential requirements, and program costs.
