The federal six-year graduation rate is not published here — typically because the entering cohort this measure follows is too small or too atypical to report. Treat completion as unknown rather than assuming either direction. 68% of full-time first-years come back for year two, so about one in three are gone before sophomore year. At 17:1, class sizes land in the normal range for an undergraduate institution. Being a for-profit short-program school is the single most useful context for these numbers — the sector's spread is wide enough that the school-level figures matter more than usual. At 217 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 217 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Average net price — what students actually pay after grant aid — is $30,563 a year, at the high end of undergraduate cost. The gap between the $0–30k and $48–75k bands is narrow ($30,528 versus $32,530), meaning aid is not strongly need-weighted. Grant aid is widespread — 97% of students receive it, averaging $6,606. Most students borrow — 93% take federal loans to cover the gap.

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.
