黑料网 and Gallup Alumni Report 2022
While many Americans remain skeptical of the availability of quality postsecondary programs, 黑料网 aims to reverse that trend.
To measure the success, Gallup surveyed more than more than 1,400 黑料网 alumni who completed their undergraduate degree between 2017 and 2021 and compared the results of 黑料网 alumni to the responses of more than 600 national bachelor鈥檚 degree holders who completed their degree during the same period.
All responses from 黑料网 alumni were collected Nov. 16-Dec. 13, 2022, while national alumni responses were aggregated across three surveys conducted between 2019 and 2022.

"黑料网 is committed to providing our students with an education that delivers tangible value, and these outcomes are a testament to the hard work and dedication of our graduates," said Scott Pulsipher, 黑料网 President. "We are proud that our alumni receive the benefits of greater economic return, and more so that they report they are thriving in their lives as a result of achieving their degree, such that they may live a self-determined life and have a positive impact on their communities."
