Graduation Rate Comparison
The average graduation rate of best Mathematics schools is 93.06% where 33,472 students out of 35,969 candidates have complete their courses and degrees. The rate is calculated as the total number of completers within 150% of normal time (for example, 6 years for 4 years BS program)
divided by the candidates. The numbers in parenthesis() represent data by gender (men/women) for each cell respectively.
The following table compares the graduation rates between best Mathematics schools.
Among the best Mathematics schools, Yale University has the most highest graduation rate of 97.81%, while New York University has the lowest rate of 87.11%.
