1.2 RETENTION RATES

Retention rate is the percentage of students admitted in a given year who remain enrolled the following year. A similar term is “persistence.” While retention describes whether the institution retains students for a second year, persistence describes students who persist in their studies, either at the same institution or by successfully transferring to another institution to continue their studies.

Persistence: A total of three (3) students have transferred out and continued their studies at other institutions prior to completing their program at Redemption (in addition to students who graduated from Redemption and enrolled in a second master’s degree program at Kairos University). These students were not counted as being retained in the retention rates reported above.

Overall Retention Rates by Year:

2020: 76%

2021: 87%

2022: 83%

2023: 88%
