The website states that 71 entered capstone in 2023, and 71 graduated. The capstone program is fully online, and lasts 4 to 7 months. There is no universe where 100% of the students who enrolled in capstone are graduating, that none had a "life happens" event and had to withdraw.

I mean they outline every single person who started and what happened to them. In 2020 and 2021, one person each year didn't graduate. Codesmith's graduation rate is like 95% too, doesn't seem that unreasonable, if you have a program that people spent months and months preparing for and preparing their entire day to day life around so that they can make it work. The only reason people might drop is unexpected chronic illness or unexpected military deployment and maybe there are cases to exclude those from the denominator? cc u/cglee. Nice thing about the Founder being here is you can just ask haha.
