From their first steps on the Hill to walking at graduation, Hilltoppers are climbing confidently. 🎓 🔴 WKU leads Kentucky’s comprehensive universities in the number of students who return after their first year. When students begin here, they stay and succeed. ⚪️ WKU awards over 30% more undergraduate degrees and credentials than any other Kentucky comprehensive university and ranks second among all four-year institutions in the Commonwealth. 🔴 Just last month, WKU celebrated more than 3,500 new graduates and a four-year graduation rate that’s higher than some of the region’s largest R1 universities. We’re counting down the days until we begin a new academic year on the Hill and are so excited for a new group of Hilltoppers to begin their climb to greater heights. #WKU #ClimbingToGreaterHeights #AboveTheRest
