Many of the Graham School of Business programs are accredited by Accreditation Council for Business Schools & Programs (ACBSP), and they ask member institutions to publicly post information about student outcomes. Here are some indicators we consider important.
Retention Rates of Recent Entering Cohorts
Retention rates look at the percentage of full-time, first-time, Bachelor's degree-seeking undergraduates who enter in one fall semester and are still enrolled at the college during the next fall semester. Here are the rates for students whose most recent major on record was in the Graham School of Business and an ACBSP accredited program:
- Fall of 2021 entering cohort: 81% retention
- Fall of 2020 entering cohort: 78% retention
- Fall of 2019 entering cohort: 75% retention
- Fall of 2018 entering cohort: 78% retention
Time to Degree of Recent Graduates
Time to Degree looks at how long it took Graham School of Business graduates to achieve their bachelor's degrees. For degree recipients in the past few years, here is how much time passed between the student's first semester at York College and the semester when they received their degree. These calculations include students whose cohort major on record was in the Graham School of Business and an ACBSP accredited program, and who came to York College as Bachelor's degree-seeking, first time (not transfer), full-time, first-year (total credits less than 30), undergraduate students.
*Note: This is NOT the same as a graduation rate or completion rate as those terms are typically used in Higher Education.
