University calculates internal employment placement rates to ensure that its
students are succeeding beyond graduation. Those rates are calculated as the
number of
students who graduated between July 1, 2009, to June 30, 2010, and were placed
by December 31, 2010, divided by the total number of students who graduated
between July 1, 2009, to June 30, 2010, and were available for placement.
Graduates available for placement are those graduates who did not have a
placement waiver or were not otherwise unavailable for placement for reasons
including health-related issues, pregnancy, continuing education, or military
service.
