Yield rate
13.8%

With an acceptance rate of 89%, Antioch College takes nearly everyone who applies. Only 138 students applied, so treat these rates as directional — small pools swing sharply between cycles. A 14% yield rate is low: the admitted pool is much larger than the entering class.

Test score bands (middle 50% of submitters)

These bands describe the enrolled first-years who submitted a score, not the entering class. Where most students apply test-optional the submitters are a self-selected, higher-scoring group.

Student:faculty
6:1

Completion is middling: 41% finish inside six years. 72% of full-time first-years come back for year two, so about one in four are gone before sophomore year. That gap between coming back and finishing is where this school loses people — after the first year, not during it. 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.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 126 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Net price lands at $15,964 a year on average, neither cheap nor punishing. The income table below is the number that matters — $12,578 at $0–30k versus $31,087 at $110k+. Grant aid is widespread — 100% of students receive it, averaging $35,865. Borrowing is widespread: 70% take federal loans.

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.

Family income band Average net price
$0–30k $12,578
$30–48k $13,006
$48–75k $14,335
