K has the second highest four- and six-year graduation rates in Michigan as of 2021 according to publicly available data released by The Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS)
The chart and table below display the four-, five- and six-year graduation rates of students who entered Kalamazoo College as full-time, first-time degree-seeking students. Although most of our students complete their degree in four years, Kalamazoo College offers a dual-degree program in engineering that consists of three years of study at K followed by approximately two years at an approved school of engineering, resulting in a Bachelor of Arts degree from K and a Bachelor of Science in engineering from the engineering school in five years.
