How a College's Graduation Rate Can Save You Money

We all know students who started their four-year college journey … six years ago. Whether they are struggling to pass classes, basking in the learning experience, or simply switching their major too many times, their college education can quickly accumulate an even larger price tag when eight semesters turn into 12.

One of the best ways a university can save you money is to help your student graduate on time. Consider the additional costs if students take five or more years to finish or if they never complete their educational goals!

Although national graduation rates are not directly comparable to a university's own graduation rate due to transfer situations, graduation rates remain a good measure of a university's academic quality and commitment to student success.

With graduation rates available to the public, be sure to check the rates of each college you’re considering!

• The national six-year graduation rate for colleges or universities is currently 61.1%.
• This year, Cedarville's six-year graduation rate is 72.4%.
• Cedarville's most recent class is off to an impressive start — an amazing 97.1% of fall 2024's incoming freshmen returned for spring semester!

Your student's offer of admission to Cedarville University is just the start of our commitment. Cedarville will begin investing in your student's future the minute they arrive on campus.
