Six-year graduation rate

key chart

56%entered Fall 2018Skip to data table

The share of first-time, full-time bachelor's entrants who completed at this institution within six years. Other students are not included.

The six-year graduation rate at Flagler College has wandered from Fall 1991 to Fall 2018 entering cohorts — up to 75.9% at the peak — but ends near where it began, at 56%.

A six-year rate can only describe a class that entered six or more years ago — by definition the last point on the line is that old.

How Flagler College compares

State and national medians cover active bachelor-primary institutions, mixing public and private schools. Tuition uses in-state rates at public schools. These are broad reference points, not a ranking of similar schools or your likely bill.

Scorecard dates identify the release snapshot, not a shared measurement year. Earnings describe federally aided students who were working and not enrolled ten years after entry; cohorts and populations differ from the admissions and tuition figures.
