Student:faculty
20:1

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. Retention of 69% means a meaningful slice of each entering class does not return. A 20:1 ratio is unremarkable; expect a mix of lecture halls and seminars. Being a for-profit four-year institution 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 379 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 379 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Average net price — what students actually pay after grant aid — is $37,109 a year, at the high end of undergraduate cost. Net price varies modestly by income — $36,554 at $0–30k against $41,736 at $75–110k — so the average is a fair guide for most families. Grant aid reaches 65% of students at an average of $6,544. Most students borrow — 82% 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.
