Program Completions

Staff at Iowa Western annually measure students' completions within programs of study on a cohort basis.  Each student who begins a program of study may persist to a following academic year as "still here"; graduate; withdraw; or change programs.  Staff can measure final program completion rates for a cohort that does not have any "still here" students.
