On-time Completion
The U.S. Department of Education defines “on-time completion” as anyone who graduates within the normal completion time. When a student comes to school and completes all applicable assignments and the number of hours required, they are considered to have graduated on time. If for any reason a student needs to take a leave of absence or delays graduation during their enrollment for life events such as sickness, family responsibilities, work, etc., it will extend their original contract date and then they are not considered to be an on-time graduate.
