So, I've been looking into colleges recently and Kansas State University caught my eye. Does anyone happen to know the graduation rate at K-State? I'm trying to get a sense of how successful their students are post-admissions.
The four-year graduation rate at Kansas State University is about 39%. However, keep in mind that many students—especially those in certain majors or those who take lighter course loads—graduate in more than four years. For that reason, the six-year graduation rate is a frequent point of reference too. For K-State, it is about 64%.
While graduation rate can certainly give you some insight into student success, remember that it's just one of many factors to consider. Make sure to also look into things like retention rate, resources for academic and career support, and internship and job placement rates. And, of course, visit the campus or participate in a virtual tour if you're able, to see how well you feel you'd fit in. These aspects will give you a more holistic understanding of student success at K-State.
Let me know if you have any more questions or need further information about Kansas State or its metrics.
