You have to keep in mind that this uses IPEDs data that only counts those that enter the university as first time freshmen. Transfers don't count and have a much better graduation rate.


Sure, but the fact is, 53% of total admissions throughout the state don't graduate within 6 years. That's a stat that tells us what we already know - college is far more interested in your money than they are in whether or not you're prepared.

That is not total admissions. That is first time freshmen admissions who graduate in 6 years while staying at the same institution. If i start at Nicholls and then transfer i get counted against the graduation rate at Nicholls. I'm sure the total still is unacceptable but it's higher.
