Post-graduate Report

Each year, the office of Career Services conducts a survey to determine the post-graduation plans of the graduating class. Graduating seniors were given an opportunity to complete this survey on-line prior to graduation. Additional information was collected throughout the year.

On July 1, 2008, the Career Services staff held a phone-a-thon in an effort to reach approximately 120 alumni who had not completed the survey. 

Of the 365 graduates in the class of 2007, 340 surveys were complete enough to use for the study. This number represents a 93.2% response rate.

 Graduate School  118  34.7%

* "Both" refers to those who are attending or have completed a graduate/professional program on a full-time basis while working in a full-time position.

*** "Other" refers to students who were in the job search process but had not made a commitment at the time of the survey. It also includes those who are traveling, pursuing a second BS/BA (including one enrolled in a BSN program, one in culinary school, and one earning a certificate in linguistics).
