TIME TO COMPLETION

GRADUATION RATE
The graduation rate for first-time, full-time, degree-seeking undergraduates is 100%, based upon students who enrolled in fall 2011 and completed a program within 150% of the normal time to completion, as reported to the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS). Walden University is primarily a graduate institution, and undergraduate students enrolled at Walden do not typically fall into the category of first-time, full-time students. The reported rate is based on a cohort of 1 student, and should therefore be interpreted cautiously, as it reflects less than 0.01% of the total undergraduate students entering Walden University in the fall of 2011.
