93% of Hillsdale graduates launch into something that is aligned with their career goals

Most schools only measure placement rates, but here at Hillsdale we care about more than just that (although we do boast a 98% placement rate); we want our students to be getting a job, going to graduate school, or taking a similar next step that is related to their professional goals.

We gather Career Interest Inventories before students arrive on campus for freshman year

As a small school, we’re able to work with each individual student and help them identify and achieve their career goals. We want to start working with students as early as possible, which is why we gather industry interests, graduate school interests, and preferred career locations before they even come to campus.
