Student:faculty
20:1

No six-year graduation rate is reported for this institution, which is common for schools whose students are mostly part-time, transfer in, or enroll in short programs that the federal cohort measure does not track. Its absence is not itself a bad sign, but it does remove the clearest completion signal. 81% of full-time first-years return for a second year — a healthy figure. Unusually, part-time retention (94%) beats full-time, pointing to a student body that is part-time by design. The student-faculty ratio is 20:1 — typical, which in practice means large lectures early and smaller classes in the major.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 877 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Net price is not reported for this institution, which means there is no single what-you-pay number to compare — the aid participation rates below are the closest available proxy. 5% get grants, which means the net price above will not apply to most applicants. Federal borrowing is uncommon here at 3% of students.

Entering first-year students

A different, smaller group than the rates above: full-time students in their first year of college anywhere. The grant series here also excludes the "other sources" counted in the all-undergraduate figure, so the two are not comparable.
