- ✓ Graduation rate 80% — well above the national average
- ✓ 3-year loan default 0.0% — below national benchmark
- ! Debt-to-income ratio 0.65 — elevated (above 0.60)
Academics
A 80% six-year graduation rate is the strongest academic signal on this page. First-year retention of 94% shows the cohort holds together through the hardest year. The two rates sit near each other: few students who return for a second year are missing from the six-year completion figure. At 18:1, class sizes land in the normal range for an undergraduate institution. As a for-profit two-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.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 332 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Students pay an average of $26,105 annually once grants are applied. Net price varies modestly by income — $25,158 at $0–30k against $30,078 at $110k+ — so the average is a fair guide for most families. 30% get grants, which means the net price above will not apply to most applicants. About 25% borrow federally, roughly the national pattern.
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.

|---|---|
| $0–30k | $25,158 |
| $30–48k | $27,705 |
| $48–75k | $29,109 |
| $75–110k | $30,078 |
| $110k+ | $30,078 |
