The six-year graduation rate represents students who enrolled as first-time, full-time students six years earlier and completed their undergraduate degrees within 150% of the traditional 4-year time frame. W&L’s six-year graduation rates are equivalent with our peers. Although the six-year graduation rate is a federal reporting standard, nearly all W&L undergraduate students complete their program in four years. Additionally, W&L students typically graduate at rates that are among the highest in the nation among all institutions including University peers.
