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.
| Entry cohort → assessment | Full-time source rate | Adjusted full-time cohort | Part-time source rate | Adjusted part-time cohort |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fall 2023 → 2024 | Not reported · A | Not reported | 91% · R | 188 |
| Fall 2022 → 2023 | Not reported · A | Not reported | 87% · R | 224 |
| Fall 2021 → 2022 | Not reported · A | Not reported | 74% · R | 202 |
| Fall 2020 → 2021 | Not reported · A | Not reported | 80% · R | 137 |
| Fall 2019 → 2020 | Not reported · A | Not reported | 77% · R | 265 |

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.
