| Apr 18, 2019 at 9:23 | comment | added | A.K. | Thank you both! I think "churn out" covers my meaning here. If only it didn't have a negative vibe to it... I guess I can use "graduate" anytime but I am looking for the best option and really good alternatives because I'm translating a university's website and want to sound as natural as I can. | |

That's what you imply in the second-last paragraph. But it's not clear from the title of your question if that's the sense you're really after. | |

Raise definitely doesn’t work, but I don’t really think there’s one specific verb that’s particularly idiomatic here. | |
