Admitting 1000 students to get 10 graduates means there are morons in admissions doing zero vetting to make sure the students are qualified.

- vasco 10mo agoOr that there's morons teaching.
- pamcake 10mo agoThere's either a 0 missing there or something pretty weird at that uni. I think the rest of the comment is very valid if we ignore this point. My experience is the same except I think ~50% or so graduated[0]. [0]: Disclaimer that my programme was pretty competitive to get into, which is an earlier filter. Statistics looked worse for programmes at similar level with less people applying.
- baq 10mo agoAbsolutely not morons. If the goal is to maximize collecting tuition and still have reputation of not being a diploma shop this is the obvious solution. The 20% which survives the first year is worth keeping around to hire them later in the companies which the teaching staff own or collect referral bonuses if working for a multinational.
- jimbokun 10mo agoTrue, outright fraud is another adequate explanation.
