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. 73% of full-time first-years come back for year two, so about one in four are gone before sophomore year. A 17:1 ratio is unremarkable; expect a mix of lecture halls and seminars. As a for-profit short-program school, 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. The undergraduate body is just 457, 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 457 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Students pay an average of $15,638 annually once grants are applied. The gap between the $0–30k and $110k+ bands is narrow ($15,383 versus $18,833), meaning aid is not strongly need-weighted. About 65% get grants averaging $5,606, so plan on the possibility of paying closer to full price. Most students borrow — 64% 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.

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 $15,383
$30–48k $14,123
$48–75k $16,345
$75–110k $18,864
$110k+ $18,833
