DURHAM – Statistics for the Graduation Success Rate (GSR) released Tuesday by the NCAA indicated that a Power 5-leading 98 percent of freshmen student-athletes receiving scholarship aid, or recruited individuals participating in programs that do not offer athletic aid, graduated from Duke within six years.
The GSR is based on student-athletes who entered college as freshmen in 2012-15 and allows for the removal of those individuals from the cohort who left Duke in good academic standing.
Nationally, Duke led all Power 5 institutions with its 98 percent GSR and tied for sixth nationally. Only Columbia, Bucknell, Harvard, Villanova and Yale were above Duke.
Among Power 5 schools, the top five in GSR included Duke (98), Northwestern (98), Notre Dame (97), Vanderbilt (97), Boston College (96), Wake Forest (96), Michigan (96) and Stanford (96).
A total of 17 Duke teams achieved a 100 percent GSR for the 2012-15 period: baseball, men's basketball, men's and women's fencing, men's and women's golf, men's and women's soccer, men's and women's swimming & diving, men's and women's tennis, men's and women's cross country & track and field, rowing, field hockey and volleyball.
Duke's remaining programs each achieved a GSR of 92 percent or better – women's lacrosse (97), football (95), men's lacrosse (95), wrestling (95) and women's basketball (92).
In the ACC, Duke's overall mark led the conference, followed by Notre Dame (97), Boston College (96), Wake Forest (96), Clemson (95), Virginia (95), Miami (93), Syracuse (93), Louisville (92), NC State (92), Pittsburgh (92), Georgia Tech (91), North Carolina (91), Virginia Tech (91) and Florida State (85).
Duke's football program was fifth nationally among Power 5 schools at 95 percent, and was second in the ACC. In the conference, Duke followed Boston College (97) and led Louisville (94), Pittsburgh (94), Wake Forest (93), Clemson (92), Georgia Tech (88), Virginia (85), Miami (83), Syracuse (82), NC State (79), Virginia Tech (77), North Carolina (71) and Florida State (63).
In men's basketball, Duke tied for the national lead with its 100 percent rate. Clemson, Duke, Florida State, Louisville, Miami, North Carolina, Virginia Tech and Virginia each registered perfect scores. That group was followed by Wake Forest (90), Syracuse (86), Boston College (83), Notre Dame (83), Georgia Tech (75), Pittsburgh (73) and NC State (63).
In women's basketball, Duke collected a 92 percent to follow 100 percent posted by Boston College, Clemson, Louisville, Miami, North Carolina, NC State, Notre Dame, Pittsburgh, Syracuse and Virginia. Florida State and Wake Forest also tallied 92 percent, followed by Georgia Tech (91) and Virginia Tech (83).
