Student Right to Know Disclosures
The Student Right-to-Know Act, passed by Congress in 1990, requires institutions eligible for Title IV funding, under the Higher Education Act of 1965, to calculate completion or graduation rates of certificate- or degree-seeking, full-time students entering that institution, and to disclose these rates to current and prospective students. Every institution that participates in any Title IV program and is attended by students receiving athletically-related student aid is required to disclose graduation/completion rates of all students as well as students receiving athletically-related student aid by race/ethnicity, gender and by sport, and the average completion or graduation rate for the four most recent years, to parents, coaches, and potential student-athletes. To read more about the Student Right-to-Know Act, please visit the National Center for Education Statistics website at http://nces.ed.gov.
The University of Mary Hardin-Baylor, acting in compliance with the Student Right to Know Act, is happy to post the following information on the graduation rates of our cohorts of full-time, first-time, degree-seeking undergraduates. Because we are an NCAA Division III school, we do not award athletically-related student aid. The graduation rates show the graduation/completion status of students who enrolled for whom 150% of the normal time-to-completion of a four-year, undergraduate degree has elapsed.
Things to keep in mind when viewing this information:
- Retention and Graduation rates are for a select group of students – Summer and Fall First-time, Full-time Baccalaureate degree-seeking freshmen. While this is an important group to track, it does not represent all of our students, including students who start in the Spring, transfer students, part-time students, graduate students, or non-degree seeking students.
- All graduation rates are based on 6 years of attendance which is equal to 150% of the normal completion time for a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor.
- Graduation rates do not include students who left school:
- To serve in the armed forces
- To take part in official church missions,
- To help with a foreign aid service of the federal government
- Graduation rates do not include students who have died or become totally disabled.
- Students who withdrew for personal or medical reasons are included in the original headcount. Additionally, students who started at the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor who transferred to another university and graduated will not be included in UMHB’s graduation rate.
- We have chosen not to report our transfer-out rate.
