by our College Data Analytics TeamMake an informed decision about your education by understanding JMVU retention and graduation rates. First year retention rates let you know how many first-time, full-time students students come back for their second year. Graduation rates tell you how many students complete their degree and how long it takes.
Unfortunately, we don’t have access to data on the retention rate for Jose Maria Vargas University.
There were approximately 19 students in the class of 2023. How many of them actually completed their degree in a timely fashion?
Four years after beginning their degree, 81% of those students had graduated. By 2025, six years after starting their degree, 90% of the students had graduated and after eight years 90% of this class completed their degree.
