Student Retention

As required by the New York State Education Department Higher Education Data System, Polytechnic conducts a yearly cohort survival analysis. This study collects data for a group or cohort of first-time, full-time freshmen (students who never attended college before) who enter Polytechnic. The data measures retention patterns and indicates the time needed to complete undergraduate degrees at Polytechnic. For a cohort study of first-time full-time students who entered Polytechnic as freshmen in fall 2004, 38 percent received their Bachelor of Science degree within four years, 52 percent graduated in five years and 55 percent completed their degree within six years.
