Indiana College Completion Report, 2015
Indiana Commission for Higher Education
The Indiana Commission for Higher Education is committed to providing a clearer and more comprehensive picture of college completion in order to inform and advance Indiana's collective efforts to boost education attainment. In partnership with Indiana public colleges and the National Student Clearinghouse, the Commission has collected completion data for Hoosier students who graduate in this state and out-of-state. Each Indiana college profile shows the percentage of students who start and finish at their campus of origin as well as those who complete at another institution or with a different degree over three different time horizons. The second page of each college profile presents disaggregated completion rates to illuminate how completion patterns differ by student population based on financial need and race/ethnicity. Some key takeaways from this report include: (1) More Indiana college students are graduating on time; (2) on-time completion remains the exception in Indiana; (3) Taking longer to complete means students pay more for their degrees… and it decreases their chances of graduating at all; (4) College completion rates are improving across all student demographic groups; and (5) racial/ethnic achievement gaps are substantial on Indiana campuses. A section on Data Notes and Definitions is appended. [For the "Indiana College Completion. 2014 Report," see ED558192.]
