What percentage of students who enroll full-time with the intention of getting a bachelor's degree do actually graduate within six years?
At four-year institutions: 58%
At two-year institutions: 22%

What percentage of students who enroll full or part-time in a two-year institution (community or junior college) with the intention of getting a bachelor's degree actually do so within six years? 14%

Data from US DOEd, analyzed for the Carnegie Foundation, see Table 2 in this article, which offers much additional analysis on the reasons.

This is a meta-comment on a discussion going on elsewhere, but I thought it might be of interest to people here, as well.
