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 June 30, 2009, 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 394 graduates in the class of 2008, 370 surveys were complete enough to use for the study. This number represents a 93.9% response rate.
| Number | Percentage | |
| Usable Records | 370 | 93.9% |
| Employment | 208 | 56.2% |
| Graduate School | 113 | 30.5% |
| Both* | 20 | 5.4% |
| Volunteer | 10 | 2.7% |

* "Both" refers to those who are attending or have completed a graduate/professional program while working.
** "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 or pursuing a second BS/BA (including one who is the current Miss Maryland, one enrolled in a BSN program, one earning a teaching certificate, one who is completing pre-requisites for a grad program, and one completing an unpaid internship).
