MONTGOMERY, Ala. | The NCAA national office released the 2020 Graduation Success Rate report for the 2010-2013 cohorts for all NCAA Division I institutions as part of the annual Academic Performance Program.
Alabama State student-athletes graduated at an 80 percent rate during that time, and the Department of Intercollegiate Athletics had multiple teams graduate 85 percent or more of their student-athletes during that same time period.
Among those programs with an 85 percent or higher GSR score, a pair recorded perfect 100 percent rates – women's golf and women's tennis during the time span. Two other programs – women's soccer and women's cross country/track and field – each finished at 96 percent or higher, while women's basketball graduated 94 percent of their student-athletes during that time period.
Other programs who finished at 85 percent or higher include men's basketball (86), men's golf (86), women's bowling (86) and softball (85).
The Graduation Success Rate data shows the percentage of student-athletes earning a degree within six years of entering college. The NCAA developed the Graduation Success Rate to account for student-athletes not tracked by the federal graduation rate, which includes transfers into Alabama State and student-athletes who transferred from Alabama State in good academic standing.
