Purdue says that 51.5% of the fall 2017 engineering frosh graduated in engineering in 4 years (another 7.3% graduated in 4 years in a different division): https://www.purdue.edu/enrollmentmanagement/data-reports/grad-retention-rates.php

But doesn’t Purdue have a decent number of students doing co-ops, which can result in extended calendar time, but not necessarily more tuition-paying semesters, to graduation? That could mean that the 4 year graduation rate may be significantly lower than the 8 semester graduation rate.
