Student:faculty

Six-year completion runs to 93% — students who start here overwhelmingly finish here. First-year retention of 86% shows the cohort holds together through the hardest year. The 25:1 student-faculty ratio is high, so large classes and limited faculty contact should be the expectation. 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 — 713 undergraduates — so cohorts are tight and the program list is necessarily short.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 713 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Net price lands at $27,081 a year on average, neither cheap nor punishing. The gap between the $0–30k and $75–110k bands is narrow ($26,298 versus $31,390), meaning aid is not strongly need-weighted. 48% get grants, which means the net price above will not apply to most applicants. Most students borrow — 65% 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.

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.
