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 weak: only 26% of full-time first-years return, so roughly three in four leave after one year. Part-time retention runs ahead at 57% — a sign this campus supports non-traditional schedules well. At 10:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. This is a public short-program institution, so read every rate on this page against that peer group specifically.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 1,341 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Students pay an average of $2,674 annually, well below typical undergraduate net price. 39% get grants, which means the net price above will not apply to most applicants.
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.
