What are the graduation rates for students at United States Sports University?

The most useful reported completion-related figure for United States Sports University is a 43% student retention rate in the 2024-25 institutional data. Retention ordinarily measures whether students in a defined entering cohort return the following academic year; it is not a graduation rate.

A retention figure alone cannot show why students leave, whether they transfer elsewhere or how long degree completion takes. Applicants comparing outcomes should ask for the most recent graduation measures for their intended degree level and confirm which entering students and time periods those measures cover.

What is the earning potential for graduates at United States Sports University?

College Scorecard field-of-study data report median earnings of $36,502 one year after completion for the sports, kinesiology and physical education/fitness field associated with United States Sports University. The figure describes a measured group of federally aided former students, not every graduate or a starting salary offered by employers.

One-year earnings cannot capture later career growth, unpaid work, differences among occupations or the cost of obtaining additional credentials. Small programs can also produce figures that change noticeably between reporting periods. Students should weigh the measure alongside program cost, borrowing, internship arrangements and the qualifications needed for the work they want.
