Student:faculty
12:1

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. Retention is weak: only 15% of full-time first-years return, so roughly four in five leave after one year. At 12:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. This is a private nonprofit short-program school, so read every rate on this page against that peer group specifically. At 232 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 232 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Average net price is $4,155 a year after grant aid — low for a four-year institution, though your own figure depends on aid eligibility. Income makes less difference than usual: $3,283 at $0–30k, $3,283 at $48–75k. About 56% get grants averaging $5,379, so plan on the possibility of paying closer to full price. Most students borrow — 56% 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.

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.
