What are the graduation rates for students at University of St Thomas-Minnesota?

St. Thomas reports a four-year graduation rate of 67% and a six-year rate of 77% for the relevant first-time undergraduate cohorts. Its reported first-year retention rate is 88%, meaning that most students in the measured cohort returned for a second year.

Graduation-rate measures follow defined groups over time; they are not a prediction that a particular applicant will finish within four or six years. They also do not describe every transfer student, part-time student or graduate student. For a prospective undergraduate, the gap between the four- and six-year rates is worth considering alongside a proposed major's course sequence, internship requirements and expected cost for any additional terms.

What is the earning potential for graduates at University of St Thomas-Minnesota?

Federal College Scorecard field-of-study data report earnings for some St. Thomas programs one year after completion. These figures are useful for comparing reported early outcomes across fields, but they are not starting-salary offers or estimates for every graduate.

  • Electrical, electronics and communications engineering: reported median earnings of $69,236.
  • Management sciences and quantitative methods: reported median earnings of $67,265.
  • Computer science: reported median earnings of $66,071.
  • Mechanical engineering: reported median earnings of $64,605.
  • Accounting and related services: reported median earnings of $58,805.
  • Business administration, management and operations: reported median earnings of $51,044.
  • Psychology: reported median earnings of $34,718.

The measure concerns graduates included in federal aid and earnings records for the specified program and measurement period; it should not be read as the average income of all alumni. Graduate study, employment location, hours worked and the number of people represented can all affect interpretation. One-year earnings are particularly limited for fields in which further education is a common next step.

For help moving from study to employment, the university's career services include individual counseling, résumé and interview preparation, job-search resources, employer events and alumni networking opportunities. Access to those services is different from a verified job offer or employment outcome.
