Alumni Employment and Continuing Education Rates
ÐÔÅ«µ÷½Ì’s Office of Career Services conducts three surveys each year (August, December, May) on the employment and continuing education of recent ÐÔÅ«µ÷½Ì graduates. The results are compiled into an annual report for the fiscal year. The primary research method is a survey of all such recent graduates administered by e-mail, supplemented by data gathered from faculty, via LinkedIn, and similar sources; 56 percent of alums responded to the 2021-2022 surveys.
Via this research we identify our alums’ current employment and education statuses according to one of the following categories:
- Employed
Respondents who are employed full-time or part-time. Does not include respondents who are enrolled in graduate or professional school. - In Graduate or Professional School
Respondents who are enrolled in a graduate or professional program and are not employed. - Not Employed and Seeking Employment
Respondents who are not employed and seeking employment. - Not Employed but Not Seeking Employment
Respondents who are unemployed but not seeking employment. - Participating In a Year of Volunteer Service
Respondents who are participating in a year of service program (e.g., Jesuit Volunteer Corps, Peace Corps, AmeriCorps, Teach for America) - Serving in the Military
Respondents who are serving in a branch of the U.S. Armed Forces or the military of another country.
Results for 2022-2023 Graduates
- 89 percent of alumni were either employed, enrolled in graduate or professional school, participating in a year of service, serving in the military, or not seeking employment within six months of their ÐÔÅ«µ÷½Ì graduation.
