Graduation Rates

Three Things About This Dashboard:

  • This dashboard offers two length of time measures: the shares of students who completed a bachelor’s degree within both 4-years and 6-years after starting college.
  • The 4-year rate is the share of all students who earned a degree within 4-years or less, while the 6-year rate is the share of all students who earned a degree within 6-years or less, which includes students captured in the 4-year rate.
  • The 6-year retention rate does not capture all our students who earned a bachelor’s degree because for a variety of reasons, more than a handful of students take longer than 6-years, but still earn a bachelor’s degree.

Grades Earned on the First Try

Three Things About This Dashboard:

  • The dashboard found under the first tab uses multiple line charts for individual courses, but it’s hard to visually present these data so most or all of it can be seen at the same time.
  • The second tab, titled Average Grade Tabular Trends will present the same data, but using descriptive statistics in a table instead of line graphs.
  • The last two tabs, First Try Headcount and Completion Rates are only offered as line graphs, but there isn’t quite as much content making it easier to digest.

“Before and After” Grades

Three Things About This Dashboard:

  • Also known as a course prerequisite checker, select a group of students who took a course… (select course) …and then took this course… (select the same or a different course) …in this sequence (one after another or at the same time).
  • The hover popup contains quite a bit of information so popup data are also shown as a table of descriptive statistics. These data include: the number of students who took each course, GPA in both the earlier and later course, and standard deviations for each.
  • Both tabs are essentially the same thing with the main difference being the first tab uses number grades and the second tab uses letter grades. , titled Average Grade Tabular Trends will present the same data results, but using descriptive statistics in a table instead of line graphs.
