(low) drop-out rates/(high) finishing rates

I´ve turned this around completely because the expression "Drop-out rate" is standard in English and nothing seemed to spring to mind the other way round. If it were the case, I wd suggest "pass rate" but this doesn't necessary fit, since there is no mention of pass/fail in the context given.

"Some Scottish universities had the highest drop-out rates " news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/education/4270044.stm

Finishing rate does exist, just not at all common as far as I can see: "males have a higher finishing rate than females" links.jstor.org/sici?sici=0038-0407(198507)58%3A3%3C191%3AFCTEOC%3E2.0.CO%3B2-F
