While it is difficult to predict the number of program completers and degree/certificate recipients, optimistic data are available.
The program has been affected by the large number of Dual-Enrollment offerings through Valley ROP and Fresno Unified. GRC 27 (video production) is the most popular of these courses. Video production is being taught in the public high schools and student enrollment is very high in those classes.
The number of degrees and certificates awarded in the Graphic Communications program has remained between 5-7 each year. There was a spike in the years 2013-2015 when counseling staff made an extra effort to encourage students to apply for certificates.
