Outcomes

The value of a ��԰AV education is more than just a number. It’s greater than our stellar career placement rate or excellent sophomore retention scores. It’s more powerful than our network of active alumni spanning states and countries. It even outshines our lifetime career support and services.

The true value of a ��԰AV degree—and the reason we’ve been around since 1742—is the transformational experience that takes hold of our students and faculty as soon as they set foot on campus. It’s the idea that you can discover your own brilliance here. And we’ve got the data to prove it.
