Hey everyone, I'm a junior working on my college list and I've included the University of Maryland. I'm curious, does anyone know what the graduation rate at UMD is? I'd like to have a rough idea of their student success rate. Thanks in advance!
The University of Maryland, College Park, has a solid graduation rate. As of the latest data, the 6-year graduation rate (the standard metric for graduation rates in higher education) stands at approximately 88%. This suggests that the overwhelming majority of students complete their programs within a reasonable time frame.
However, keep in mind that this is a general figure. The graduation rate may vary from program to program. So if you're interested in a specific major, it's a good idea to reach out to the university admissions or the specific department to ask about the graduation rates for that particular major.
Remember, while graduation rates can be a useful indicator of a school's student support, they're just one piece of the bigger picture. It would also be beneficial to look at factors such as class size, academic support resources, career guidance, and student-faculty ratio, among others, when considering student success.
