Academics
Six-year completion runs to 78% — students who start here overwhelmingly finish here. First-year retention of 100% shows the cohort holds together through the hardest year. The two rates sit near each other: few students who return for a second year are missing from the six-year completion figure. A 5:1 ratio points to small classes and accessible faculty. Judge these figures against other institutions of the same type — sector explains more of the variation in completion than any single campus factor.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 39 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Net price lands at $17,559 a year on average, neither cheap nor punishing. Income makes less difference than usual: $19,516 at $0–30k, $11,570 at $48–75k. 46% get grants, which means the net price above will not apply to most applicants.
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.

Net price by family income
The same students as the headline above, limited to those who received Title IV federal aid — a narrower group, with a lower overall average. IPEDS publishes no combined figure across these bands, so they should not be averaged into one.

| $0–30k | $19,516 |
| $30–48k | $9,831 |
| $48–75k | $11,570 |
