Student Right-to-Know
Graduation Rates

Saint Michael's College is pleased to provide the following information regarding our institution's graduation/completion rates. The information is provided in compliance with the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended. The rates reflect the graduation/completion status of students who enrolled during the (2002-2003) school year and for whom 150% of the normal time-to-completion has elapsed.

During the fall semester of 2002, 527 first-time, full-time, certificate or degree-seeking Undergraduate students entered Saint Michael's College. After 6 years, (as of August 31, 2008), 81% of these students had graduated from our institution or completed their programs.

The four year average (1999 – 2002), Student-Right-to-Know completion or graduation rate is 79%.

The four year average (1998 – 2001), Student-Right-to-Know completion or graduation rate for full-time students who received athletically-related aid is 80%.


While reviewing this information, please bear in mind:

  • The graduation/completion rate is based on 6 years of attendance that equates to 150% of our longest program.

  • We have elected not to report our transfer-out rate because our university's mission does not include providing substantial preparation for students to enroll in other institutions.

  • The graduation/completion rate does not include students who left the school to serve in the armed forces, on official church missions, or in the foreign service of the federal government. Students who died or were totally and permanently disabled are also excluded
