The Center for Career Development and Internships (CDI) at Winthrop University annually surveys graduating undergraduate students to provide a snapshot of their post-graduation plans. Students are surveyed the week prior to graduation, with data collection open for several weeks; responses to this survey are used to determine the Response Rate. Additional information is then collected via LinkedIn and other sources; this information combined with Response Rate information is used to determine the overall Knowledge Rate. Class Year follows NACE standards and runs on the academic year from July 1 through June 30 the follow year. For more information on First Destination Survey standards, guidelines, and protocols, visit NACE's website.

for Career Development and Internships from LinkedIn and other data sources. Methodology
