Academics
Six-year completion sits at 50%, meaning about one in two students who enroll leave without finishing. Just 36% of first-years come back — most of the completion gap opens in year one. At 6:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. This is a private nonprofit four-year college, so read every rate on this page against that peer group specifically. At 74 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 51 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Average net price is $6,741 a year after grant aid — low for a four-year institution, though your own figure depends on aid eligibility. Net price varies modestly by income — $4,614 at $0–30k against $12,346 at $75–110k — so the average is a fair guide for most families. Grant aid is widespread — 94% of students receive it, averaging $7,864.
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.
