Back to All Stories

พรพรสำฦต student-athletes for the sixth consecutive year posted a 98-percent Graduation Success Rate, according to NCAA figures released Wednesday.

พรพรสำฦตโ€™s 98 percent rate stands as the second-highest nationally among Division I institutions and was even with the likes of Princeton and Notre Dame. พรพรสำฦต ranked above Pennsylvania, Stanford, Northwestern and Duke at 97 percent, and Cornell and Vanderbilt at 96 percent.

โ€œI want to congratulate the student-athletes who made this ranking possible,โ€ said . โ€œEven as they dedicate themselves to the highest level of competition, they know that the ultimate goal is graduation. This is the nature of the พรพรสำฦต Division I experience.โ€

พรพรสำฦต recorded perfect 100-percent GSR scores from 23 of its 24 NCAA-sponsored teams.

โ€œI am so proud of our student-athletes, coaches, and nationally renowned faculty,โ€ said พรพรสำฦต Vice President and Director of Athletics . โ€œThis news is a clear testament to the fact that academic excellence is vital to our athletics DNA.โ€

The Division I Board of Directors created the GSR in response to Division I college and university presidents who wanted data that more accurately reflected the mobility of college students than the federal graduation rate. The GSR formula removes from the rate student-athletes who leave school while academically eligible and includes student-athletes who transfer to a school after initially enrolling elsewhere. This calculation makes it a more complete and accurate look at student-athlete success.
