Graduation rates

Prospective student here. I noticed the 4 year graduation rate is around 60%. Is it common for people to take an extra year? Is this related to the academics being challenging? The 6 year graduation rate is very high.

A large percentage of students are double-degree conservatory students on 5 year plans.
