Here are some links that may be relevant to the discussion:

HPU’s federal mandate report, which includes 6 year grad rates, as well as lots of stuff about fire extinguishers and crime statistics. It also says in the preface that more information is available in community relations - I think they’d share the CDS data if requested. I replaced the dot with DOT in the addresses, as I can’t remember if links are allowed.

I wondered about the significance of 6 year graduation rates, especially in light of camdisco’s observation that the student body is rapidly changing. I found this interesting article from the Chronicle of Higher Ed:

I really have no fish to fry here, but I am following the conversation with interest (I follow discussions on my daughter’s top five regularly). Rockvillemom, I see your posts often and find them helpful. And camdisco, it’s great to see a student who defends their college! Apologies to the OP for contributing to a discussion that has veered far from the original question.
