Walsh's reported four-year graduation rate is 55%, while its six-year rate is 58%. These rates describe defined cohorts of first-time, full-time students pursuing bachelor's degrees; they are not the completion rates of all transfer, part-time, or graduate students.
The small difference between the four- and six-year figures suggests that most graduates counted in this cohort finished within four years, but it does not explain why other students did not complete a degree at Walsh. The reported student retention rate is 72%, a separate measure of whether students continue from one academic year to the next. Applicants in tightly sequenced majors should ask how often required courses, clinical placements, or student-teaching opportunities are available, since course timing can affect an individual graduation plan.
Federal College Scorecard program-level figures offer a limited view of earnings roughly one year after completion for graduates whose earnings can be measured. They are not starting-salary offers, guarantees for future students, or a measure of everyone who studied a subject.
Among the reported program figures, the one-year median is $57,782 for registered nursing and $49,290 for business administration. The corresponding figure is $33,689 for special education. These comparisons require care: graduates may work in different locations, hold different credentials, pursue further education, or enter jobs with different hours and pay structures.
Program-level earnings are most useful when considered alongside the price of the degree, likely borrowing, licensing requirements, and the time needed to enter a field. They should not be interpreted as evidence that one major is necessarily a better personal or financial choice than another.
