What are the graduation rates for students at Williams Baptist University?

In the 2024-25 graduation reporting, Williams Baptist University's six-year graduation rate was 26% for the measured first-time, full-time student cohort. Its four-year rate was 18%. These figures describe completion within specified time limits for particular entering cohorts, not the eventual outcomes of every student who has attended WBU.

The reported first-year retention rate was 70%, measuring the share of the relevant first-time students who returned the following fall. Retention and graduation answer different questions: returning for a second year does not necessarily mean finishing a degree, while a student who transfers and graduates elsewhere generally will not count as a WBU graduate in its institutional rate.

These completion figures merit attention when estimating the time and cost of a degree. They do not, by themselves, identify why students left or how a transfer student or part-time student is likely to fare.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Williams Baptist University?

College Scorecard program-level figures reported in October 2026 offer a limited view of earnings about one year after completion. They are best read as reported median earnings for the federally aided completers included in a particular field's measurement, not as starting-salary offers or predictions for every graduate.

• Teacher education, specific levels and methods: $34,536.
• Teacher education, specific subject areas: $36,152.
• Business administration, management and operations: $32,404.
• Liberal arts and sciences, general studies and humanities: $29,496.
• Psychology, general: $19,595.

Fields differ in whether graduates enter full-time work immediately, continue to graduate or professional school, or pursue occupations with different pay structures. Small program cohorts can also make a reported figure less representative of future students. Compare earnings with likely borrowing, career requirements, and longer-term goals rather than treating one year's outcome as the value of a degree.
