Academics
Six-year completion runs to 85% — students who start here overwhelmingly finish here. 80% of full-time first-years return for a second year — a healthy figure. A 11:1 ratio points to small classes and accessible faculty. Being a for-profit two-year institution is the single most useful context for these numbers — the sector's spread is wide enough that the school-level figures matter more than usual. The undergraduate body is just 235, 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 235 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Net price lands at $17,526 a year on average, neither cheap nor punishing. Income makes less difference than usual: $14,790 at $0–30k, $21,985 at $110k+. About 53% get grants averaging $4,645, so plan on the possibility of paying closer to full price. Borrowing is widespread: 66% take federal loans.
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.

| $30–48k | $16,540 |
| $48–75k | $16,334 |
