What are the graduation rates for students at University of Wisconsin-Green Bay?

Reported outcomes show a 36% four-year graduation rate and a 53% six-year graduation rate for the applicable first-time student cohorts. These measures track completion over different periods and should not be read as the share of every current student - including transfers and part-time students - who will graduate.

A separately reported overall graduation measure is 48%; its population and reporting definition should not be assumed to match the six-year measure. First-to-second-year retention is reported at 66%. Together, these figures give applicants a reason to ask about advising, course availability, and the typical time to finish their intended major. They do not, by themselves, explain why an individual student stays, leaves, or completes a degree.

What is the earning potential for graduates at University of Wisconsin-Green Bay?

Program-level College Scorecard figures describe reported earnings roughly one year after completion for graduates represented in the federal data. They are historical outcomes for particular groups, not starting-salary offers or predictions for a new student.

For example, the reported one-year figure is $63,741 for registered nursing and $55,092 for computer science. Accounting is reported at $54,225, while psychology is reported at $27,970. Differences can reflect occupation, location, further study, employment patterns, and which graduates have reportable earnings. Students comparing programs should also consider sample size and later-career outcomes rather than treating a single early-career figure as a measure of a degree's value.
