Student Right to Know
Federal “Student Right to Know” (SRTK) legislation requires colleges to disclose information about student completion, graduation and transfer rates over a three year period. The rates for students who were considered new, full-time, and certificate- or degree-seeking, and who entered in Fall 2017, are outlined below. The status of these students was measured as of August 31, 2023.
38% Completers/graduates
15% Transfer-out
53% Completers, graduates or transfer-outs

It is important to understand the background of this information. As a community college, EvCC enrolls large numbers of students who may be part-time, or not seeking a certificate or degree, or who have transferred from another college, or who enroll at times other than Fall Quarter. The initial cohort described above comprises only 22% of all entering students in Fall 2017, and thus only represents a small proportion of students. The statistics above should be evaluated only as a snapshot of what happens to a limited category of students, based on limited data.
