About these student measures
The entering-student group includes part-time entrants as well as other attendance patterns.
Marymount Manhattan College enrolls 1,577 undergraduates, including a visible share who receive federal grant aid or arrive after beginning elsewhere. Pell Grant recipients make up 28.4% of undergraduates, a financial-access measure rather than a description of family background.
An estimated 16.0% of the undergraduate population enters as transfers or part-time students, so the campus includes both students starting college there and those continuing prior coursework. This mix suggests an undergraduate body with more than one route into study, rather than a single entry pattern.
At Marymount Manhattan College, the first-year retention rate for full-time students is 70.2%, and the six-year graduation rate for that cohort is 49.0%. Both figures sit below the medians for comparable institutions, where retention is 74.2% and completion is 54.9%.
Pell Grant recipients in the same entering cohort complete at 48.6%, 0.4 percentage points below the overall rate.
