For the purpose of this survey, the “Class of 2019” is defined as anyone who graduated in December 2018, May 2019, or August 2019. Statistics provided are based on information received through a variety of methods. An electronic survey was distributed in May via email. Graduating seniors who had confirmed their post-graduation plans were asked to complete the survey during the cap and gown distribution in May. Follow-up emails were then sent in October, November and December to alumni who had not yet responded to the survey. In January, individual academic departments were contacted via phone or email, and a request was made to all Messiah College educators for any additional information on graduates whose status remained unknown. Finally, information on non-responders was gathered from updated professional profiles on social media sites such as LinkedIn. It is important to note that the collection process and reporting summary of results adheres to the professional guidelines set forth by NACE (the National Association for Colleges and Employers).
