What are the graduation rates for students at Unity Environmental University?

Reported completion outcomes warrant attention: IPEDS figures for 2024-25 list a 29% overall graduation rate, including a 24% four-year rate and a 29% six-year rate. The reported student retention rate is 36%.

Graduation-rate measures follow defined groups of entering students over time; they are not the share of all current students who will graduate. In particular, standard first-time, full-time graduation measures do not describe every transfer or part-time student, and the cohorts began before some of Unity's recent institutional changes. Earlier reported six-year rates were higher, so these figures should be read with their cohort years and definitions rather than turned into a forecast for an individual applicant. Students comparing programs can ask for completion and retention information specific to their degree and study format.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Unity Environmental University?

Federal College Scorecard program figures offer a limited look at earnings about one year after completion. Reported median earnings include $32,677 for environmental and natural-resources management and policy and $24,558 for wildlife and wildlands science and management.

Other reported one-year program medians are $21,178 for zoology and animal biology and $22,365 for ecology, evolution, systematics, and population biology. These are measures for graduates with earnings captured in the underlying federal data, not starting-salary offers or earnings guaranteed to every graduate. Program cohorts may be small, and the figures do not account for factors such as geography, further study, full-time versus part-time work, or differences in career goals. A student weighing cost against potential earnings should compare the exact degree, expected borrowing, and likely occupation rather than treat one-year earnings as a lifetime return.
