What are the graduation rates for students at University of Arkansas at Monticello?

UAM's reported overall graduation rate was 49% in the 2024-25 IPEDS-based figures. Separately reported four-year and six-year rates were 28% and 38%, respectively. These measures should not be added together: graduation statistics can use different cohorts, completion windows, and credential definitions.

The reported six-year rate improved from 35% in the preceding comparison year, while the four-year rate rose from 24%. UAM's reported student retention rate was 72%. Retention asks whether students continued enrollment over a specified interval; it does not measure whether they ultimately completed a credential.

Federal graduation measures generally focus on defined groups of entering students and do not describe every transfer, part-time, or returning adult learner. A student comparing programs should also ask about the usual course sequence and whether required classes are offered often enough to support their planned completion timeline.

What is the earning potential for graduates at University of Arkansas at Monticello?

College Scorecard field-of-study figures provide a limited look at earnings one year after completion for federally aided students in the reported programs. They are not starting-salary offers or predictions for an individual graduate.

Among the reported figures, the median for nursing was $57,480. The figures were $36,486 for management information systems, $34,799 for business administration, and $34,793 for agricultural business and management. Other reported examples include psychology at $28,595 and criminal justice at $25,881.

These are program-level, one-year measures, not a comparison adjusted for occupation, work hours, local labor markets, or further education. A broad field label can also encompass more than one credential. Students considering a particular degree should pair earnings figures with its curriculum, likely licensure steps, borrowing needs, and longer-term career plans.
