A school’s graduation rate can indicate how likely a student is to complete their degree. At Moody Bible Institute, over the last five years 60% of students earned their bachelor’s degree within six years of enrolling.
Students from different demographic backgrounds often graduate at different rates, so it can be helpful to look beyond the overall graduation rate. This chart shows how students of different races and ethnicities fare earning their degrees at Moody Bible Institute.
| Demographic category | Graduation rate at Moody Bible Institute | National average |
|---|---|---|
| American Indian/Alaska Native | 100% | 30% |
| Asian | 64% | 45% |

| White | 56% | 49% |
| Multiple races | 45% | 37% |
| Unknown race | 66% | 37% |
Student retention, or how often students return to continue their degree after completing their first year, is another helpful indicator. Over the last five years, at Moody Bible Institute, about 80% of full-time students returned the following fall to continue their degree.
The size and demographic makeup of a school’s student body can have a large impact on a student’s experience. Moody Bible Institute has 2,614 students, which puts it in the {SIZE_PERCENTILE} percentile of private, 4-year schools.
About 54% of students are male.
And about 52% of students are white.
