Academics
No six-year graduation rate is reported for this institution, which is common for schools whose students are mostly part-time, transfer in, or enroll in short programs that the federal cohort measure does not track. Its absence is not itself a bad sign, but it does remove the clearest completion signal. Retention is strong at 91%, and first-year attrition is where most degrees are lost. At 16:1, class sizes land in the normal range for an undergraduate institution. Judge these figures against other institutions of the same type — sector explains more of the variation in completion than any single campus factor. At 416 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 416 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Average net price after grant aid is $19,196 a year — mid-range for a four-year institution. Income makes less difference than usual: $17,344 at $0–30k, $18,758 at $110k+. About 72% get grants averaging $7,350, so plan on the possibility of paying closer to full price. Most students borrow — 72% 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.

| $48–75k | $21,075 |
