Based on this, we may conclude that the higher gradation rate of a major is ALWAYS influenced by
transferring students who may be originally enrolled in other majors.

Percent of originally declared majors who graduated

How to read the table: Out of 17 students who 2011/12 enrolled in Agricultural Sciences, 12
graduated within 6 years in ANY major (as discussed above, 4 stayed in agricultural sciences). This
means that 70.59% of students who originally enrolled in ag majors graduated in 6 years.

Some (original) majors are above the average (29%), e.g., Accounting, Agricultural Sciences,
Biology, Marketing Majagement, Chemistry, Criminal justice, English, Social work). Some other
majors are well below average (e.g., Architecture, Management, Education, Mechanical engineering).
