Spurr School of Practical Nursing
Private College in Glen Dale, WV.
Academics
This institution reports no six-year graduation rate. The federal measure only follows first-time, full-time students, so schools built around part-time or transfer enrollment often fall outside it entirely. 100% of full-time first-years return for a second year — a healthy figure. A 6:1 ratio points to small classes and accessible faculty. Judge these figures against other institutions of the same type — sector explains more of the variation in completion than any single campus factor. The undergraduate body is just 31, which shapes everything from class size to how often a required course is offered.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 31 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Average net price after grant aid is $15,661 a year — mid-range for a four-year institution. Net price varies modestly by income — $18,058 at $0–30k against $15,318 at $30–48k — so the average is a fair guide for most families. Grant aid is limited — 39% of students receive any.
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 | $18,058 |
| $30–48k | $15,318 |
