Academics
Six-year completion sits at 50%, meaning about one in two students who enroll leave without finishing. 75% of full-time first-years come back for year two, so about one in four are gone before sophomore year. The distance between those two figures is the part worth noticing — students return for a second year at a much higher rate than they graduate, so attrition here is spread across the middle years rather than concentrated in the first. The 10:1 student-faculty ratio is small enough that seminar-sized classes are the norm.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 160 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Students pay an average of $26,088 annually once grants are applied. The gap between the $0–30k and $48–75k bands is narrow ($28,317 versus $31,522), meaning aid is not strongly need-weighted. Grant aid is limited — 33% of students receive any. Federal borrowing reaches 27% of students.
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.
