I was googling Northern Michigan University and couldn't really find clear info on their graduation rate. Can anyone shed light on this? Is it fairly high or low? Thanks!
Absolutely, I can help with that. According to the most recent data from the National Center for Education Statistics, Northern Michigan University’s graduation rate is quite average. Approximately 53% of students graduate within six years, which is the standard metric used when discussing graduation rates.
It's important to remember that this measure includes all students who began as first-time, full-time freshman. Part-time, transfer, or non-traditional students are not accounted for in this percentage. Also keep in mind that your own success at an institution will be determined by how well the school's resources and support systems align with your own needs, rather than the overall graduation rate. So, I'd recommend doing more detailed research on Northern Michigan's tutoring services, counseling, and so on when evaluating how you'd do there.
But hopefully, this overview gives you a general sense of the graduation trends at Northern Michigan!
