The graduation rate of a university typically represents the percentage to the time in which a new student enters and completes their degree. High graduation rate shows the students’ ability to complete their degree. It usually correlates with strong academic support, like good professors and high academic quality. Low graduation rates mean the opposite. The students struggle and find it hard to learn and succeed in college. Usually because of the lack of motivation, poor academic support… which causes them to drop out or slow down their path to completing their degree.
