What are the graduation rates for students at Trocaire College?

Trocaire College's reported overall graduation rate is 31% in the 2024-25 institutional reporting. That measure should be read as a defined cohort outcome, not as the percentage of every student who eventually earns a credential.

Federal graduation-rate reporting generally follows first-time, full-time students who complete within the specified measurement period. It can therefore leave out many transfer entrants and students whose attendance patterns differ. This is particularly important at Trocaire, where the reported number of transfer-in degree- or certificate-seeking students exceeds the number of first-time entrants.

The rate is below the reported national institutional average of about 52%, but the comparison does not by itself explain why students did or did not complete. Applicants can ask their intended program for its own recent completion figures, the length of its required course sequence, and how often courses are offered. Program-level outcomes may answer a different and more useful question than the institution-wide rate.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Trocaire College?

Potential earnings after Trocaire College depend heavily on the credential, occupation, location, and whether a graduate obtains any required license. An institution-wide salary claim would be a poor substitute for comparing outcomes in the particular field a student intends to enter.

When reviewing College Scorecard earnings measures, students should check who is included, whether the figure is a median rather than a mean, and how long after leaving school income is measured. A one-year measure is not lifetime earnings, and a field-of-study measure may combine people with different jobs or further education. Prospective nursing and allied health students should weigh occupation-specific pay alongside licensing results, placement requirements, likely work hours, and the total borrowing needed to finish the program.
