University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point

What are the graduation rates for students at University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point?

In reported completion data, 37% of the relevant first-time student cohort graduated within four years, while 57% graduated within six years. These measures track a defined entering cohort over different periods; they do not describe the probability that any particular student will finish on that schedule.

A separately reported overall graduation measure is 51%. Because completion statistics can use different definitions or student groups, it should not be substituted for the six-year cohort figure. The reported student retention rate is 74%, indicating the share captured by that measure who continued from one academic year to the next.

For planning, the four-year and six-year figures show why time to degree matters financially. An additional year can mean more tuition and living expenses. Transfer students and students who begin part time may not be represented in the conventional first-time, full-time graduation cohort, so they should examine their own credit evaluation and course sequence.

What is the earning potential for graduates at University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point?

Federal College Scorecard program-level figures provide a limited view of earnings about one year after completion for graduates whose earnings can be measured in the federal data. They are not starting-salary offers, and they do not describe every graduate of a program.

Examples reported for UW-Stevens Point include median measured earnings of $56,856 for computer and information sciences and $45,118 for soil sciences. The corresponding figure for forestry is $37,992. These differences should not be interpreted as the financial value of one major relative to another: occupation, location, additional schooling, hours worked, and the people included in each measured group all affect the results.

Students can use program-level earnings alongside information about placement support, licensure, graduate-school pathways, and likely borrowing. A one-year measure is especially incomplete for fields where further training or early-career experience is common.
