1 "Number of Students Who Began Program" means the number of students who began the program who are scheduled to complete the program within the reporting calendar year.
2 "Number of Graduates" is the number of students who have completed the program within 100% of the published program length.
3 "Graduates available for employment" means the number of graduates minus the number of graduates unavailable for employment. “Graduates unavailable for employment" means graduates who, after graduation, die, become incarcerated, are called to active military duty, are international students that leave the United States or do not have a visa allowing employment in the United States, or are continuing their education in an accredited or bureau-approved postsecondary institution.
4 "Graduates employed in the field" means graduates who report that they are gainfully employed within six months of graduation in a position for which the skills obtained through the education and training provided by the institution are required or provided a significant advantage to the graduate in obtaining the position.
5 Placement Rate is calculated by dividing the number of graduates gainfully employed in the field by the number of graduates available for employment.
|
* Starting in 2011 Hawthorn University is complying with the California Postsecondary Act of 2009 by collecting placement data through anecdotal reports via phone, email, and surveys.
Number of students who began program is the number of students who began the program who are scheduled to complete the program within the reporting calendar year.

Graduates is the number of students who completed the program within 100% of the published program length.
Completion Rate is calculated by dividing the number of Graduates divided by the Number of Students Available for Graduation.
Placement rate shall be calculated as follows: the number of graduates who are employed in the field divided by the number of graduates available for employment.
STATE OF CALIFORNIA WAGE DATA
The institution makes no claims about the wage or salary a graduate may expect as a result of graduating from our programs. Hawthorn University’s unique curriculum focuses on students building their own businesses; however the University is providing the mean salaries and wages information as given by the California Employment Development Department.
The chart below reflects the wage data for the job or job titles provided by the Employment Development Department’s Occupational Employment Statistics (http://www.labormarketinfo.edd.ca.gov). This salary information does NOT reflect the actual jobs obtained by Hawthorn University graduates upon graduation, but rather all jobs in the industry, whether entry level, mid-level or senior/upper level jobs typically held by more experienced practitioners.
This fact sheet is filed with the Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education. Regardless of any information you may have relating to completion rates, placement rates, starting salaries, or license exam passage rates, this fact sheet contains the information as calculated pursuant to state law.
