UCOP graduation rates reported here include inter-campus transfers between UC campuses, which IPEDS graduation rates do not. UCOP graduation rates also do not include degrees awarded retrospectively which are included in campus graduation rates. For these reasons, the graduation rates reported here may vary slightly from those reported elsewhere.
