Methodology & Honesty Note
Data is collected via post-graduation surveys (90-day follow-up + 6-month follow-up), cross-verified against LinkedIn profile updates and (where shared) offer letters. Students who decline to share outcomes are excluded from the n-count, not counted as “non-placed”. We don’t inflate by counting unpaid internships or unrelated jobs.
