Retention rates measure the percentage of students who return to the college to continue their studies the following fall.
The data represent the most recent RCSJ final release IPEDS data. The data are updated annually, no later than July 1st (34 CFR 668.41(a)-(d), 34 CFR 668.45, 34 CFR 668.8(b)(1)(ii)). Due to the timing of IPEDS reporting, current and prospective students are encouraged to visit the Student Right to Know page for links to current institutional data (e.g. cost-of-attendance, etc.) For provisional release IPEDS data, please contact [email protected].
