Applied Behavior Analysis Certificate (On Campus) Student Outcomes

This program began in Fall 2020. Discontinued in Fall 2023.


Retention Rate

This program began in Fall 2020. The one-year retention rate for those entering the Graduate Certificate in Applied Behavior Analysis (On Campus) program will be calculated one-year after the first cohort.

Methodology: Retention rate is calculated as new students who enrolled in a Fall term of one academic year and came back the subsequent Fall term, e.g.  retention rate = (# retained in Fall 2023)/(# started in Fall 2022).  When the program length is one year or less, the retained count includes those who were retained one-semester later (e.g., Spring 2023/Fall 2022) or graduated within one-year of starting the program (e.g., # Graduated between 9/1/22 and 8/31/23 divided by # starting in Fall 2022). This retention metrics tracks students who return to the same program version level (program and modality).
