<p>any one know why drexel graduation rate is 60%? Thanks.</p>
<p>They have lower rates than traditional 4-yr colleges because most of their students are in 5 yr co-op programs (comparing their 6 yr graduation rates to that of other colleges is sort of like comparing apples to oranges)</p>
<p>Drexel estimates that approximately 60% of their undergrads participate in a 5-year program with coop.</p>
<p>The most recent 6-year graduation rate data that I can find shows a 66% grad rate.</p>
<p>how about you compared with Northeastern ? How can I find out whether Northeast is the 5 year program ? they are quarter co-op school on the quarter system.</p>
<p>Northwestern college is also co-op school on the quarter system. If you look at the graduation rate from below rate.</p>

<p>Co-op reason is not convincing.</p>
<p>I think further investigation will help further Drexel retention rate.</p>
<p>Thank you for getting back to me.</p>
