Median earnings ten years after entry come to $30,848, below what most undergraduate institutions return — the central fact to weigh against cost here. 47% finish within six years — respectable, though a meaningful share still leave without a credential. Median debt at graduation is $9,608, a light load against those earnings.

Student:faculty

Six-year completion sits at 47%, meaning about one in two students who enroll leave without finishing. 56% first-year retention is low enough to be the defining risk of enrolling here. The student-faculty ratio is 16:1 — typical, which in practice means large lectures early and smaller classes in the major. Judge these figures against other institutions of the same type — sector explains more of the variation in completion than any single campus factor. With 10,710 undergraduates, this is a large institution — expect the administrative scale and the range of offerings that come with it.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 5,602 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Students pay an average of $7,470 annually, well below typical undergraduate net price. Income makes less difference than usual: $6,450 at $0–30k, $11,770 at $110k+. Grant aid reaches 72% of students at an average of $5,361. Federal borrowing reaches 26% of students.

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.
