What are the graduation rates for students at University of Connecticut-Avery Point?

The reported overall graduation rate for UConn Avery Point is 62%, with a four-year rate of 49%. These are cohort-based measures, not predictions for a newly admitted student.

Federal graduation-rate measures follow defined groups of first-time, full-time students over specified periods; they do not describe every transfer student, part-time student or adult learner. Avery Point's reported first-year retention rate is 70%, measuring a different outcome: whether students continued into the following year. Students comparing these figures with other institutions should check cohort definitions and consider how a planned change of campus within UConn fits their individual route to a degree.

What is the earning potential for graduates at University of Connecticut-Avery Point?

Field-of-study earnings figures can provide context for UConn degree choices, but they are not Avery Point-specific salary forecasts. The reported College Scorecard figures describe earnings measured one year after graduation for the applicable field and student population; they should not be read as salaries available to every graduate of that major.

For example, reported one-year earnings are $71,033 for computer science, $70,444 for registered nursing and $29,040 for biology. Those fields have different entry-level labor markets, and a university-wide program figure does not establish that the entire degree can be completed at Avery Point. Earnings also reflect factors such as location, work hours, further study and which former students have earnings captured in the underlying records. Applicants weighing a major should pair the figures with its actual Avery Point course pathway and likely education requirements after the bachelor's degree.
