What are the graduation rates for students at Washington University of Science and Technology?

WUST's reported graduation rate is 67% within six years, while its reported four-year rate is 0%. These figures describe a defined cohort of first-time, full-time undergraduates, not every student who has attended WUST.

The distinction matters at an institution that also enrolls transfers. Transfer students, part-time students, and graduate students generally are not represented by the standard first-time, full-time graduation-rate measure. The reported first-year retention rate is 75%, meaning that three-quarters of the students in its defined cohort continued to the next year. Given the small first-year entering class, changes involving only a few students can substantially move these percentages. The figures do not establish why students did or did not complete a degree.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Washington University of Science and Technology?

A reliable one-year post-completion earnings figure is not established here for WUST's reported computer and information sciences or business administration fields. Students should therefore avoid treating a salary quoted for another institution, degree level, or graduating class as a WUST outcome.

When comparing any published earnings measure, check whether it is a median or an average, how long after study it was measured, and whose earnings were included. Employment location, prior experience, further education, and the number of graduates represented can all affect the result. Earnings data can inform a decision, but it cannot predict an individual graduate's salary.
