Reported Wabash completion outcomes show a four-year graduation rate of 71% and a six-year rate of 77%. The reported retention rate is 93%, indicating that most students in the measured first-year cohort returned for the following year.
Graduation rates follow defined groups of entering students over a specified period; they do not predict whether a particular applicant will graduate. The difference between the four- and six-year figures shows that some students complete after the standard four-year window. Students comparing colleges should consider both measures, especially when an additional year would substantially increase their costs.
College Scorecard figures report earnings by field for some former Wabash students one year after graduation. The reported amounts include $52,397 for mathematics, $50,346 for economics, $45,148 for political science and government, $32,054 for history, and $30,882 for biology.
These are field-specific, early-career observations - not starting-salary offers or earnings promised to every graduate. They should not be interpreted as a comparison of the lifetime value of majors. Employment, further study, location, occupation, and the group included in a federal earnings measure can all affect a figure.
Students evaluating career support separately from earnings outcomes can use Wabash's career services for individual planning, résumé assistance, interview preparation, job-search resources, employer events, and alumni networking. An internship is not required of every student, so those who want one should plan early with their department and career advisers.
