Student-Right-To-Know
Our data shows that 34% of the full-time new freshmen who entered Methodist College in
Fall 1999 have received a baccalaureate as of Fall 2005. In addition, another 7% were
enrolled as of Fall 2005. This information is provided pursuant to requirements of the
Student-Right-to-Know and Campus Security Act of 1990.
Graduation rates are a measure of the success of students in attaining their educational
goals. A graduation rate is the percentage of students in a given entering cohort (group)
who graduated within a specified period of time. The number of students in the entering
cohort is the denominator of the rate; the number of students graduating is the numerator
of the rate. The entering cohort of an institution includes all full-time, first-time degree- or
certificate-seeking undergraduate students who began in the stated cohort year. The time
period is 150% of normal time to program completion (for example, for a four-year
program, the graduation rate would include students who had graduated within six years of
beginning the program).
Transfer-out rates are the total number of students in the entering cohort who are known to
have transferred to another institution within 150% of normal time to program completion,
divided by the cohort.
