Enrollment, Retention, Graduation and Time to Degree

The chart above illustrates key student success metrics, listed by the year each cohort (group) of students began their graduate studies. Cohorts of students typically begin graduate studies in August. For each cohort, we measure retention rate, or the percentage of each cohort that is still pursuing graduate studies after one, two or three years have elapsed since they began. Graduation rate measures the percentage of each cohort that has completed graduate studies by the time five, six, seven, and 10 years have elapsed since they began. Mean time to degree is the average time required for the students in a given cohort to complete graduate studies
