Colleges with the highest graduation rate?

Hello! As I start my college search journey, I'm curious about which colleges have the highest graduation rates. Can anyone provide me with a list or some information on colleges with notably high graduation rates? Thanks in advance!

Hello! Graduation rates are a great metric to consider when looking at colleges, as they can often indicate the level of student support and overall academic environment. Here's a list of some colleges in the United States with notably high graduation rates:

1. University of Notre Dame – 95%

2. Yale University – 97%

3. Harvard University – 97%

4. Princeton University – 98%

5. University of Chicago – 96%

6. University of Pennsylvania – 96%

7. Duke University – 96%

8. Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) – 94%

9. Columbia University – 97%

10. Stanford University – 96%

It's important to note that these graduation rates pertain to the six-year graduation rate for full-time, first-time undergraduates who completed their degree within 150% of the normal timeframe. Also, many of the schools listed above are highly selective institutions, so while they have high graduation rates, they can be quite competitive to get into.

Additionally, don't forget to consider other factors such as fit, location, size, academic offerings, financial aid, and campus culture when conducting your college search. While graduation rates can give you an idea of a school's academic environment, it's essential to find a college that is the right fit for you personally.

Finally, it's worth mentioning that researching individual programs and majors within colleges can also be helpful, as some schools might have strong offerings or high graduation rates in specific disciplines you're interested in.

I hope this information helps! Good luck in your college search!
