Download Report: The Four-Year Myth
Complete College America Releases Affordability Strategy Based on Guided Pathways to Success (GPS) to Address Low Completion Rates, High Cost of Extra Time on Campus
In their latest report, Four-Year Myth, Complete College America and its Alliance of States reveal that the vast majority of full-time American college students do not graduate on time, costing them and their families tens of thousands of dollars in extra college-related expenses, as well as lost wages from delaying entry into the workforce. The report also points to spikes in debt in years 5 and 6 and shows that the overwhelming majority of public four-year colleges graduate less than half of their students on time.
