Report: UConn Undergrads Get Degrees Faster Than Those at Most Schools

STORRS, CT — University of Connecticut students are graduating with their undergraduate degrees in an average of 4.2 years, almost a full year ahead of the average bachelor’s degree candidate at more than 3,600 post-secondary institutions nationwide, according to new figures.

UConn officials shared the results on Tuesday.

The National Student Clearinghouse Research Center declared in a new report released this week that the average student nationwide takes 5.1 years to graduate, and that it is slightly higher at 5.2 years at four-year U.S. public universities like UConn.

UConn’s rate of 4.2 years ranks it sixth among 58 public national universities, according to the report.
