In compliance with the Student Right-to-Know and Campus Security Act (Public Law 101-542) and as amended by the Higher Education Technical Amendments (Public Law 102-26), the following information represents WIU's disclosure of the Graduation Rates of all students and student athletes.
Over 55 percent of full-time new freshmen and 65 percent of full-time new transfers who entered in the Fall of 1999 graduated from WIU by the Summer of 2005. Fall-to-Spring freshman retention rate was over 90 percent for the Fall 2004 - Spring 2005 period. The Fall-to-Fall freshman retention rate was 79 percent for Fall 2004 - 2005.
Graduation rates of students recruited for participation in intercollegiate athletics are evaluated annually. The total graduation rate for student athletes who received athletically-related aid and matriculated in Fall 1997 and graduated by August 2003 was 71.2 percent. Seventy-four percent of women and sixty-eight percent of men student athletes graduated. However, the small number of student athletes causes the graduation rate to fluctuate from year to year.
