Bates College: Outcomes

What distinguishes Bates students from those at other institutions? Will you get into a good graduate school and get a good job after graduating from Bates? These are some of the most common questions asked by parents and prospective students.

In an effort to provide answers, we have gathered information and research, both quantitative and qualitative, from many areas of the College. We believe that the accomplishments of Bates students and alumni cannot be summarized in a single measure or statistic. We encourage you to explore the links below, and to evaluate for yourself how students and alumni have made use of a Bates education. They will give you a sense of some of the opportunities available to students, how others perceive Bates, and the broad range of opportunities available to Bates graduates.

Many of these links will take you to other sections of Bates Online. To return to this page, you'll need to use the "go back" feature on your browser.
