Michigan State Athletics just posted an all-time high for the graduation rates of its student-athletes.
The NCAA released data today that shows that, collectively, MSU student-athletes posted all-time highs for Graduation Success Rates (GSR) and Federal Graduation Rates (FGR) for the four most recent classes.
By the NCAA’s measurements, each incoming class gets six years to graduate — so these numbers represent the freshman classes that started at MSU in 2009, 2010, 2011, and 2012.
According to an MSU press release:
Michigan State student-athletes posted a GSR of 91%, bettering last year’s 88%. Seven sports posted a 100% GSR, including men’s basketball, men’s tennis, rowing, field hockey, women’s golf, women’s soccer and volleyball.
