[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I thought 5 years was close to becoming the norm. Are the graduation rates published in USN&WR and similar college ranking sites [b]still based on 4 years?[/b][/quote] No. US News Best Colleges graduation rates are based on 6 year graduation results. OP: This (that US News uses 6 year graduation rates) may help your son to better accept his situation. I know lots of students who had a great deal of difficulty leaving their university after 4 years because they enjoyed the experience so much. Not uncommon for seniors and recent college grads to have a fear of entering the real world workforce. OP: Encourage your son to enjoy his last year of college. He'll probably meet the love of his life and then accept that it was meant to be.[/quote]
