Again, Georgia Tech has a 33% drop out rate in 6 years (i.e. 67% of incoming freshman engineers graduate as engineers by at least their 6th year of college).



And Caltech only has a ~6% dropout rate (i.e, 94% of incoming students graduate within 6 years).

The retention rate for every school is different, but nationwide 50% is a rule of thumb for the average retention.
