Dallas Baptist University Strategic Plan 2025-2029

The strategic plan is centered around student achievement, focusing on retention rates, graduation rates, graduate employment rates and educator licensure. The aim is to elevate transformative education by improving student support, identifying at-risk students, and bolstering career development opportunities. Goals include achieving a 70% first-to-second year retention rate by Fall 2027 and 73% by Fall 2029, a 60% graduation rate within six years by Fall 2027 and 62% by Fall 2029, and a 75% graduate employment rate by the academic year 2028-2029. The plan also seeks 100% pass rate on educator licensure tests by the second attempt.
