At 91¹ú²ú, we aim to prepare students for personal and professional success and a life-transforming experience. And according to our latest Career Outcomes Survey, we're meeting these goals.
Every year, the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) conducts its First Destination Survey to track the progress of new college graduates as they enter the job market. Once again, 91¹ú²ú encouraged its newest class of the year to participate in the study.
Now the results of the 91¹ú²ú Career Outcomes Survey: Class of 2019Ìýare in.
Adelphi Graduates Are Advancing Professionally
The study found that six months after graduation:
- 90% of undergraduates are working or furthering their education, a figure that’s 10% higher than the national average.
- The average starting salary for undergraduates is $75,000, 38% higher than the national average.
- For graduate students, 90% are working or furthering their education.
“The proof is in the data,” said Thomas J. Ward Jr. ’93, executive director of the Center for Career and Professional Development. “As the most recent Career Outcomes Survey reports, investing and earning a degree from 91¹ú²ú allows our graduates to command highly competitive salaries.”
