University of North Carolina at Charlotte

What are the graduation rates for students at University of North Carolina at Charlotte?

About 69% of the reported first-time, full-time bachelor's cohort graduated within six years; about 50% graduated within four years. These measures follow an entering cohort over different periods, so the four-year figure is not a separate group added to the six-year figure.

The reported first-year retention rate is 85%, meaning that proportion of the relevant first-time student cohort returned the following fall. Graduation-rate measures of this kind do not describe every student: transfer students, part-time entrants, and many adult learners have different starting points and may not appear in the standard first-time cohort. A student estimating time to degree should also consider major sequencing, transferred credits, course availability, and whether full-time enrollment is feasible.

What is the earning potential for graduates at University of North Carolina at Charlotte?

College Scorecard field-of-study figures report earnings one year after completion for graduates with usable federal-aid and earnings records. They are medians for the measured group, not starting salaries promised to all graduates of a major.

Examples from the reported figures include a one-year median of $61,034 for computer science, $59,850 for registered nursing, $42,308 for business administration and management, and $27,551 for psychology. These differences should not be read as a ranking of educational value: graduates may enter different occupations, pursue further study, work different hours, or live in markets with different wages. Small groups and limitations in matched records also affect what can be reported. Earnings are one consideration alongside program cost, likely borrowing, career interests, and longer-term plans.
