Led by football and men's basketball, Razorbacks see increase in graduation rates

FAYETTEVILLE — FAYETTEVILLE — The six-year graduation rate was 85% for athletes who enrolled at the University of Arkansas between 2010-13, according to an adjusted rate released by the NCAA on Tuesday.

The score of 85 was Arkansas’ highest in the NCAA’s Graduation Success Rate (GSR), one point higher than a year ago when the Razorbacks had an overall score of 84.

GSR is a calculation of how many athletes graduate within six academic years of college enrollment and often looks much different than federal graduation rates because of differences in how the two rates are calculated.
