What is up with UGA? I knew Bennet went for 8 year and didn’t get a degree. I guess more than half are on the same plan.

You can't tell me uga doesn't have some nonsense degree athletes can finish. Look at the other high academic schools, even the ones you mentioned on that same list.

Who gives a shite about this anymore? They aren’t paid to play school.

Sounds like Cincinnati is doing the best job of educating student athletes then.

The high school's tuition Arch went to borders on Tulane.
I'm sure he would have been fine without his name.

Some of the most successful men in the world never got a degree.

Just like it's a myth that GT has high admissions standards for their athletes and that they don't have an easy diploma track for them.

SAT Middle-50% of Admitted First-Year Students: 1310-1470
ACT Middle-50% of Admitted First-Year Students: 28-33
Middle-50% of AP, IB and Dual Enrollment Courses Taken: 8-12
Middle-50% of All Admitted First-Year Students: 4.04-4.32
Those are pretty high standards. I’d imagine comparable to the other schools you listed.

I don't think he mentioned athletes...check notes..., nope, he didn't.

Anyone who believes the majority of those kids are at the school for academics has to be smoking crack
BTW, Bama has an impressive grad rate

Let's see, I don't believe the OP or the person he was responding to posted anything about admissions rates. . . checks notes. . ., yup, you're still a douchebag.

The portal changes this graphic by a mile

Are football players not athletes, or am I missing something? The whole graph is about football graduation rates

He's trying to be a smart arse because a GT fan brought up admissions rates.

Admission standards have zero to do with it. Academic support by the university and recruiting kids who are capable of doing the work impact it. Also, how is a transfer out calculated? That will have an impact as well.
I have seen the academic support at A&M first hand. If they cannot graduate with that kind of support, then they really didn't really try and/or your advisors let them choose an inappropriate major.
I cannot imagine any school with a major athletic program like the entire SEC doesn't have similar support. These programs support all athletes at the universities.
With the transfer portal, some of the calculation is going to have to change for these things or everyone is going to be near a damn 0 success rate. If you transfer out and you are in good standing, you should not count for or against this type of calculation.
