Graduation and Retention Rates - "Student Right-to-Know"

Since July 1, 2000, all colleges and universities whose students use any federally-funded financial aid must inform current and prospective students and their parents about the school's graduation rates.  These graduation rates are calculated for groups of new full-time fall freshmen, who are tracked for a minimum of six years.  If you would like to get a printed copy of UW-Green Bay's graduation rates, please contact the Office of Institutional Research at (920)465-2374 or via e-mail at furlongd@uwgb.edu.
