New report says more people from IN completing college

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) – A new report from the Indiana Commission for Higher Education says more people from Indiana are completing college.

The report said between the year 2012 and 2015 the number of students earning a Bachelor’s Degree in four years went up by 5 percent.

Four percent more students also finished their Associate Degrees in two years.

The Indiana Commissioner for Higher Education said the start is promising, but the state is going to have to keep pushing to bring the numbers up.
