Academics
53% graduate within six years — average, but that average still hides a large group who do not. First-year retention is 61% — the single largest point of attrition on this campus. A 6:1 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. This is a small school — 553 undergraduates — so cohorts are tight and the program list is necessarily short.
