Graduate Tables

A prompt is provided to select Degree Year. The default is set to the current year.

Several tables are presented such as breakdowns by:

  • Degree Year and Degree Level
  • Degree Year and Degree Level and Degree Program Name
  •  Graduates by Residency by Year
  • Graduates by Residency by Year and by Term
  • Graduates by CIP Code

Example – 2023-24 Degree Year

For this example, we selected degree year 2023-24 and clicked the Apply button.

We can see that for the 476 graduates, 481 degrees were awarded. We can review the breakdown by program to see which programs had the higher number of graduates. We see that Liberal Arts and Science: General Studies AS, Nursing AAS, and Business Administration AAS are our top yielding program graduates for 2023-24.
