Show 75 Excerpt - Finishing Degrees on Time
Submitted by KTD on May 2, 2012 - 11:10am
NATIONWIDE IT'S BEEN taking students longer and longer to finish college - 4 years for a bachelor’s degree is no longer the norm - 5 to 6 years is more like it, and plenty of students don’t make that goal. For the University of Alaska statewide, about 30% of full-time, degree- seeking students get a degree within 6 years. The University is trying to increase that number by creating what they call a “culture of completion” among students.
KTD’s Jessica Cochran has this story.
