Graduation Rate
Dean College graduation rate is below the national average.
43% of full-time students enrolled for the first time to Dean College completed the education program and got a degree in 150 percent of the expected time of completion.
The graduation rate value includes only programs that were completed less than six years for four-year degrees or less than three years for two-year degrees.
Graduation rate is the percentage of institution’s new-entering, first-time, first-year undergraduate students who complete their program within 150% of the published time for the program. Graduation rate excludes an extensive number of students. This index doesn’t take into account students of nontraditional enrollments - part-time students, students who enroll mid-year, and who transfer from one institution to another. So graduation rate alone can create a misleading perception. Completion rate in the form of total number of students receiving any types of awards/degrees creates a complete picture. Combining this data with graduation rate is a better way to compare institutions.

Student Reviews and Ratings for Dean College
Overall Rating:
Every single professor I had was fantastic. So passionate about their specialty!!! It made my time here flyby and learn so much.
Source of the review: Google Places, Google Maps™Whoever says this college is bad never got to know how its really like on campus, everyone is there to help you and there IS police. Its campus safety.
Source of the review: Google Places, Google Maps™Spent my first two years of college here as a theatre major, and while I liked it at first my opinion quickly changed. PROS: The professors were easily the best part of my experience here. They quickly got to know who I am and what I'm like. Small campus makes it very easy to get around. As for everything else, I can't speak very highly. CONS: The PRICE. Even with all my scholarships and financial aid I still felt bad for my parents having to pay so much when I knew by my sophomore year that I wasn't going to be happy at this school. There's nothing to do on campus or in the surrounding area. I have spent many days in my room bored out of my mind. Classes are far too easy. I can't recall ever spending more than an hour or two total on any given assignment. I spent some classes paying zero attention whatsoever and still managed to pass everything. Even as a theatre major, I got cast in a single show during my time at Dean. Even so, it was just an ensemble part and I couldn't help but feel like I was only being cast out of pity. Part of this did help me realize that theatre wasn't what I truly wanted to do (but that's not on Dean, that's on me).I transferred after my sophomore year and I can honestly say it's the best decision I've ever made. Dean was okay my first year, but after the terrible sophomore year I had, I'd be happy to never step on that campus again.
Source of the review: Google Places, Google Maps™The Joan Phelps Palladino school of dance at Dean College turns out some of the best performances of the region, year after year! Congrats to all those who make it Possible.
Source of the review: Google Places, Google Maps™Let me start by saying I have not actually went to this school but I did apply ( And my grades are definitely high enough to get in ) but my admissions counselor was Very rude ( witch is unfortunate because they. Had a program that I was very interested in ), I explained my situation and then he responded I felt he was being rude but I just went with it then he made a remark basically saying that I won’t get accepted to any colleges because of the situation witch is untrue it’s not a big problem either ( I’ve been accepted to 5 to be exact ) and when I let him know that he replied very rudely and went on and on about it . I them just said ok and hung up . I was very disappointed because this was. Collage I honestly was interested in but I don’t want to attend somewhere that I don’t feel welcomed or just genuinely happy with my counselor. My situation has been fixed since then it wasn’t a big huge thing but I still won’t be attending because of this situation. It’s very unfortunate .
