University of North Texas

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

UNT's reported six-year graduation rate is 61% for the measured cohort of first-time, full-time degree-seeking undergraduates. Its four-year rate is 43%. These rates track completion within specified periods; they do not describe every student who eventually finishes a degree.

The six-year figure rose from 56% in the earlier reported comparison to 61% in the 2024-25 data. UNT's reported first-year retention rate is 77%, measuring a different outcome: whether students continue into the following year, not whether they graduate.

Federal first-time-cohort graduation rates have an important limitation at a university that enrolls many transfers and adult learners. They do not follow all transfer entrants as a single group or fully capture students who leave, study part time or finish elsewhere. For a prospective student, the figures are most useful alongside major-specific course sequencing, advising access and the credits that will apply to the intended degree.

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

College Scorecard program data report median earnings for qualifying federally aided former students about one year after completing a credential. These figures are observations for measured groups, not starting-salary offers or predictions for every graduate.

In the supplied program-level figures, the one-year median is $65,613 for computer and information sciences and $71,290 for computer engineering. The reported figure for journalism is $31,877, while business administration, management and operations is $48,695. Program labels can cover different credentials and career paths, so an applicant should check that the credential and field match the degree being considered before making a comparison.

One year is a short window: graduates may still be pursuing further education, entering licensed professions, working part time or changing fields. Earnings also vary with location, prior experience and who is included in the measured population. The figures are more informative when considered with program cost, likely borrowing and the time normally needed to enter a field.
