The items in this section correspond to data elements collected by the IPEDS Web-based Data Collection System's Graduation Rate Survey (GRS).

For complete instructions and definitions of data elements, see the IPEDS GRS Forms and Instructions for the 2025-2026 Survey.

In the following section for bachelor's or equivalent programs, the Fall 2018 and Fall 2019 cohorts are disaggregated into four groups:

  • Students who received a Federal Pell Grant*
  • Recipients of a subsidized Stafford Loan who did not receive a Pell Grant
  • Students who did not receive either a Pell Grant or a subsidized Stafford Loan
  • Total (all students, regardless of Pell Grant or subsidized loan status)

* Students who received both a Federal Pell Grant and a subsidized Stafford Loan should be reported in the "Recipients of a Federal Pell Grant" column.

For each graduation rate grid below, the numbers in the first three columns should sum to the cohort total in the fourth column.

For Bachelor's or Equivalent Programs

Data is provided for the Fall 2019 cohort if available. If Fall 2019 cohort data are not available, data is provided for the Fall 2018 cohort.
