<p>Page 11: Half of the '07 women graduated in 4 years, and 81% of the '06 women graduated in 5 years. Guys are catching up as well.</p>

<p>You can see drastic improvements at GT in the last ten years on freshman retention rates, graduation rates, etc. Unfortunately, these stats don’t show who co-oped and who didn’t. In general, if you are an average student at GT with a goal to finish in 4, you can. And if you come in with a semester of credit, you can decide how to utilize that.</p>

<p>A real issue is that the people who are most determined to finish in 4 (or 3.5 as quite a few do), don’t often make time to be a campus tour guide or CWT host, so they aren’t spreading the word on how to graduate on-time/early. I’d love to see some stats on tour guide vs. non-tour guide graduation times. :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :-)</p>
