What are the graduation rates for students at University of Mary?

The University of Mary's reported six-year graduation rate is 67% for the first-time, full-time undergraduate cohort used in federal graduation reporting. Its four-year rate is 57%. These measures track a defined entering group at the same institution; they are not the graduation rates of every transfer, part-time, or graduate student.

The reported first-year retention rate is 84%, meaning that most students in the measured entering cohort returned the following fall. Retention and graduation answer different questions: returning for a second year does not establish eventual completion. Prospective students should use the rates as context and ask their intended program about course sequencing and typical time to degree, particularly if they expect to transfer credits or attend part-time.

What is the earning potential for graduates at University of Mary?

Federal College Scorecard program data report earnings for some University of Mary fields one year after completion. The figures are median earnings for the federally aided completers represented in each reported program measure, not a starting-salary offer or a prediction for every graduate.

Reported examples include $57,370 for registered nursing, $54,166 for business administration and management, and $49,621 for allied health diagnostic and treatment professions. Teacher education for specific levels and methods is reported at $35,222. These are field-level figures, not a comparison of graduates with identical jobs, locations, credentials, or working hours.

One-year earnings leave out much of a career trajectory and should be weighed alongside borrowing, program cost, licensing requirements, and a student's intended occupation. For job-search preparation, the university reports services including individual career counseling, résumé and interview help, job listings, employer events, and alumni networking. Access to those services is different from a verified employment outcome.
