P = Placed Graduates
G = Total graduates
U* = Graduates unavailable for placement 

*无法就业定义为无法就业且属于以下类别之一的学生:健康相关问题, military obligations, incarceration, continuing education status, or death.

认证机构:职业学校和学院认证委员会(ACCSC)

As per ACCSC standards, 列出的比率可能不包括属于以下类别之一的学生:死亡, incarceration, active military service deployment, 身体状况的开始导致无法继续登记或就业, 或以学生或工作签证入学的国际学生，毕业后没有资格在美国持续就业.
