Student Achievement
Percentage of first time in college students completing program-level math & writing requirements in year one
These student cohorts are new first time in college credit students seeking a Lane credential of 1 year or longer who have (self-reported) not previously attended college. These students started in Fall term. Program-level means a course specifically required for the student’s declared program. The terms “program-level” and “gateway” may be used interchangeably but note that for some career technical credentials, program-level math courses may be below 100-level. Successful completion is a grade of P or C- or better.
Math
Lane’s one-year program-level math completion rate increased over the last 5 years, from 24% for the 2013 cohort to 43% for the 2019 cohort. An increase in 9 percentage points was seen between the 2014 and 2015 cohorts. Early gateway math completion builds a foundation for academic and career success and is known as a predictive key indicator correlated with graduation.

Writing
Lane’s one-year program-level writing completion rate improved in four of the last five years, increasing from 42% for the 2013 cohort to 48% for the 2019 cohort. Early gateway writing completion builds a foundation for academic and career success and is known as a predictive key indicator correlated with graduation.

Percent of Fall Start Students who Complete Degrees or Certificates with 3 years
This graph shows how many Lane students completed a Lane credential within 3 years, for fall cohorts starting from fall 2009 to fall 2017 (AY09/10 to AY17/18). The award-seeking fall cohort includes any credit student seeking any credential of 1 year or longer. Awards are counted based on completion of requirements AND conferral of award. Approximately 1.4% of students completed an award within 3 years but conferral was delayed beyond the 3-year timeframe.
For example, from the new credit students seeking a credential of 1 year or longer who started in September 2017, 16.3% completed a degree or certificate by August 2020 and 14.6% completed an associate's degree.
