<p>Ehh. I don’t think that you are correlating the right variables there. Usually if someone does not graduate it is because they cannot handle the curriculum or because they transfer. So graduation rates are very positively correlated to the academic strength of a school’s student body. Consider that MIT’s graduation rate is above 95%. WPI’s graduation rate is above the engineering average because it is an above average engineering school.</p>
