Peoria, Ill. -- The NCAA recently released the latest Division I Graduation Success Rate (GSR) data and Bradley student-athletes continue to garner national recognition for their academic achievements.

Eight of Bradley's 15 teams (Men's Basketball, Men's Golf, Women's Basketball, Women's Cross Country, Women's Indoor Track, Women's Outdoor Track, Women's Softball and Women's Tennis) boasted 100 percent Graduation Success Rates in the most recent cohort according to the NCAA release. In addition to the eight teams with a perfect 100 percent GSR, five teams (Baseball, Men's Cross Country, Men's Indoor Track, Men's Outdoor Track and Soccer) exceed the national average for their respective sport and every Bradley program earned a 90 percent or higher. 

The latest GSR includes all student-athletes who entered Bradley as freshmen between 2012 and 2015 and earned their degree within six years. 

This is the fourth straight year in which Bradley's teams earned a 96 percent GSR rate. 

The GSR formula removes from the federal rate student-athletes who leave school while academically eligible and includes student-athletes who transfer to a school after initially enrolling elsewhere. This calculation makes it a more complete and accurate look at student-athlete success.
