Student:faculty
3:1

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. A 3:1 ratio points to small classes and accessible faculty. As a for-profit four-year institution, outcomes here deserve a harder look than the sector average suggests: for-profit institutions vary enormously, and the sector's aggregate numbers hide both strong and very weak performers. At 284 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 284 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

One gap to flag: this institution does not report an average net price, so the figures here describe who receives aid rather than what a year actually costs. Use the school's own net price calculator before comparing it against anywhere else. Only 48% of students receive grant aid, so most families are paying near the published price. Most students borrow — 55% take federal loans to cover the gap.

Federal student loans went to 156 of these 284 students, totalling $1,201,941 — an average of $7,705 each.
