Published first-year retention
Connected EF part-D observations concern prior-fall first-time degree/certificate-seeking cohorts assessed a year later. NCES describes persistence or completion; four-year institutions' cohorts are bachelor-seeking. Entry study status remains the grouping even if a student later changes between full- and part-time.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fall 2023 → 2024 | 73% · R | 317 | 48% · R | 73 |
| Fall 2022 → 2023 | 79% · R | 234 | 61% · R | 54 |
| Fall 2021 → 2022 | 79% · R | 198 | 72% · R | 123 |

Percentages are retained from the source rather than recalculated. R means reported; P means carried forward. Other source flags remain in the evidence. Missing rates remain unavailable and a published 0% remains zero. These are institution-level historical observations, not programme graduation rates, current service-quality rankings or individual predictions.
