REGISTRAR: Student-Right-to-Know Act: Graduation Rate Report
In accordance with
the Higher Education Act of 1965, as
amended,
-
All graduation rates are based upon 6 years of attendance which equates to 150% of the normal completion time of our predominant program.
-
We have elected to report our transfer-out rate because NSU does offer some pre-professional programs intended as preparation for degrees we do not offer and students do choose to transfer for various reasons.
-
These charts do not identify the reasons why our students withdrew; therefore, students who withdrew for personal or medical reasons are included.
-
The graduation rates do not include students who left the school to serve in the armed forces or on official church missions or with a foreign aid service of the federal government, or students who died or were totally and permanently disabled.
-
The university is not required to disclose this information on any cohort/subcohort with five or fewer students..
