Student Outcome Data
Student Outcome Data is updated annually in conjunction with the Council on Academic Accreditation in Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology (CAA) Annual Report and University required Programmatic Review.
Program Completion Rates
Between 2021 and 2024, 97% of our students completed the Master’s program on time. Numbers are based on a cohort of students admitted to the Master's program in the summer term. Of that original cohort, we report the number who graduated in 6 semesters as those who complete within the expected time frame. Those completing later than the expected time frame typically complete requirements no later than the following fall semester.
