  • College-Completion Rates Remain at Last Year’s Pace – Students – The Chronicle of Higher Education

    • As in last year’s report from the clearinghouse, the new data show that working students, parents, and others who could attend only part time were the least likely to graduate within six years.

    • . Their completion rate inched up 1.3 percentage points, while the rate for those who began at two-year public institutions was up 1.1 percentage points.

    • Not surprisingly, students who started at four-year private, nonprofit colleges had the highest completion rates, at 72 percent. The lowest rate, 37 percent, was for those who started at two-year public colleges.
