Historical Graduation Rate Reports

Graduation Rates
The Board of Regents’ “systemic” Graduation Rate Report is designed to track a first-time, full-time cohort of students through the first six years of Louisiana public postsecondary education. This calculated graduation rate includes graduates from both the “same” or starting institution and any “other” public postsecondary institution in Louisiana. For each cohort, three separate graduation rates are calculated: a) “associate or below in 150% of normal time” for students awarded an associate degree, diploma, or certificate within 3 years; b) “baccalaureate in 150% of normal time” for students awarded a baccalaureate degree within 6 years; c) “first award from [a] or [b] in 150% of time”.

Educate, Innovate, and Collaborate

The Master Plan

To move Louisiana aggressively forward, the Board of Regents has embraced a robust new attainment goal that calls for 60% of all working-age adults (ages 25-64) in Louisiana to hold a degree or high-value credential by 2030. As we stand on the brink of a new decade, this Master Plan, born of the Board of Regents’ unique charge to guide postsecondary education across the state, will set the foundation to increase opportunity. Our Talent Imperative is to Educate, Innovate, and Collaborate
