Hey guys, do any of you have an idea about the graduation rate at the University of Georgia? Really curious about the student success and retention there.
The University of Georgia (UGA) has quite high student success and retention rates. According to the most recent data, UGA's four-year graduation rate is around 75%, and the six-year graduation rate is approximately 88%. This means that about 75 out of 100 of undergraduate students graduate from UGA within four years, and 88 out of 100 graduate in six years.
To put these numbers in perspective, these rates are well above the national averages. The national average four-year graduation rate is approximately 33%, and the national six-year graduation rate is around 57%.

Remember, while these statistics are useful to consider, they're just one factor in sizing up a school. Additional aspects, such as the campus environment, available resources, course rigor, financial aid availability, and degree offerings should also play significant roles in your college decision-making process.
