For 2022, the MSIT programs incoming class of 2020 was comprised of 71% males and only 29% females.  Compared to previous years, this is on trend for the university with the average gender distribution resting at 74% male and 26% female.  

SSU's graduating MBA class (incoming class of 2020), boasted an almost equal gender distribution, with 59% of the class being male and 41% being female.   Compared to previous years, this is common for the MBA program, as the programs average gender distribution rests at 47% male and 53% female.  

This graph is representative of the distribution of graduates between the three campuses, as well as SSU's online option.  Please note that "online" is only representative of one student- classified under the MBAO program.  

Due to a higher level of enrollment at the universities Irvine campus, the majority of graduates (50%) are coming out of that location.  The institutions low enrollment rates in Las Vegas will continue to reflect low proportions of graduates.  

SSU's Undergraduate class of 2018 (Bachelors of Business Administration), had a 50/50 gender distribution.  Please note that the total class size is 19, with only 8 students completing the program.

87% of graduating BBA students came from the institutions Irvine campus.  This is excepted as enrollment for SSU's bachelors program is higher in Irvine.  However, this  gap between enrollment is growing and the reasoning is currently under review.  Current studies suggest a greater student engagement related to campus-community buy-in.

A total number of 8 students from the incoming BBA class of 2018 completed or graduated out of a class of 19.  The overall graduation rate for the institution's undergraduate program for 2022 stands at 42%.  On average this rate is standard in relation to comparative universities, but is considered an achievement for SSU.  Low enrollment in the BBA program, has often affected the institutions graduation rates in the undergraduate program (low  of 30%).

The average age of an SSU BBA graduate is 30 years of age (grad year 2022).  According to studies, there is not a measurable difference in the ages of of graduate and undergraduate students.  Although the average age of SSU's graduate students is slowly going up, recent trends suggest the same for the institutions undergraduate program.  

SSU's Certificate in Marketing program graduates were primarily female in 2022; 66%.  The Graduate Certificate in Business Administration program was comprised of 33% females and 67% males.  The Graduate Certificate in IT had a 50/50 gender distribution in 2022.  Note, that this graph is only representative of 82% of students who successfully completed their certificate program.  

Unlike other SSU programs, the majority of certificate graduates in 2022 came from the institutions San Diego campus.  This is an interesting find and has proven to be consistent over the last 2 years.  The reasoning is unknown.

A total of 40 students enrolled in a certificate program graduated or completed their program in 2022.  SSU's certificate graduation rate stands at 82% for 2022, which is on trend with previous years.  The most popular certificate being the institution's Certificate in Marketing, which currently holds the majority of graduates/completers  for those students enrolled in a one year program.

The average age of students enrolled in a certificate program in 2021 is 30 years of age.  As seen in other programs, 30 is the average age of an SSU student regardless of program.  Additional studies suggest that the certificates appear to be programs that are highly attractive to returning SSU students.
