Thiel's reported four-year graduation rate is 40%, while its six-year rate is 48%. These measures track defined entering groups over different periods; they do not mean that every student who remains enrolled for six years graduates.
The reported overall graduation rate is 49%, and the student retention rate is 73%. Retention measures whether students return after their first year, whereas graduation rates measure degree completion over a longer window. The figures should not be used interchangeably or read as a prediction for a transfer student, whose prior credits and time to completion may differ from those of the first-time cohorts typically used in federal graduation reporting.
Applicants concerned about finishing on time can ask for a major-specific course plan, including the sequence of required courses and any internships, clinical placements, or certification steps.
College Scorecard program figures provide a limited view of earnings roughly one year after completion for federally aided former students represented in each reported field. They are not starting-salary offers or promises about what a particular graduate will make.
The comparison is useful mainly for understanding the scope and limits of the published measure. Field-specific results can reflect differences in occupation, location, further study, and the graduates included in a reporting cohort. A one-year earnings figure does not account for total college costs, student debt, or how earnings may change later in a career.
