A 95% six-year graduation rate is the strongest academic signal on this page. 10% first-year retention is low enough to be the defining risk of enrolling here. A 6:1 ratio points to small classes and accessible faculty. This is a public community college, so read every rate on this page against that peer group specifically. The undergraduate body is just 132, which shapes everything from class size to how often a required course is offered.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 132 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Average net price is $3,110 a year after grant aid — low for a four-year institution, though your own figure depends on aid eligibility. About 74% get grants averaging $3,036, so plan on the possibility of paying closer to full price.

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.
