Graduations Rates within six years after beginning their degree.
64.3% COSC
45.6% Excelsior College
41.9% TESU

This makes sense to me. Take Excelsior College with 90% of students are military and or nurses almost all are working full time. Military times list Excelsior College as having an 87% military graduation or transfer rate. EC only has a 5% student default rate (this will come from the 60% non-military students). This is a part-time education gig for most.
The REAL question is why B&M colleges have such low graduation rates of FULL-TIME students?
That makes sense for the big 3 in general, but I'd argue that most of those graduates are probably taking a more traditional approach to their education. I think in this case we're more interested in how many students use what they learn here to go on to complete a degree. I can't think of an easy way to quantitatively measure that.
