QUEENS, N.Y. (Dec. 6, 2023) – The NCAA released its annual data on Graduation Success Rate (GSR) on Tuesday and the Red Storm was well represented among the nation's best in terms of academic accomplishment.
Overall, St. John's boasted a department-wide GSR of 88.8 percent. Five Red Storm teams (women's basketball, women's fencing, women's golf, women's tennis and women's volleyball) posted perfect GSRs. Three additional teams (softball, women's soccer and women's cross country/track & field) checked in above the 90 percent mark.
Of the 15 Red Storm athletic programs accounted for in the GSR release, 14 finished above the federal graduation rate for their respective sports. Cross Country, Indoor Track & Field and Outdoor Track & Field are treated as one sport for GSR purposes.
The Graduation Success Rate measures six-year graduation rates at NCAA member institutions. The cohorts examined in the release encompass student-athletes that entered St. John's as freshmen between the fall semesters of 2013 and 2016.
