How much does a low graduation rate bother you?

As someone who’s very cost conscious, yes a low four year grad rate, but a good 5-6 year grad rate would bother me as it looks like i’d be paying for 5-6 years of school. I can’t do that. One little LAC that dd’11 looked at made it a point to let all of us present for scholarship days know that, with fin aid, 4 years there would cost less than the 5 years it would take to get through state flagship down the road. They were willing to work with students to make sure they could get through in 4 years. Their numbers backed up their claims, too.
