Academics

Full-time retention
94%
Transfer-out rate
Student:faculty
18:1

The federal six-year graduation rate is not published here — typically because the entering cohort this measure follows is too small or too atypical to report. Treat completion as unknown rather than assuming either direction. Retention is strong at 94%, and first-year attrition is where most degrees are lost. The student-faculty ratio is 18:1 — typical, which in practice means large lectures early and smaller classes in the major. This is a for-profit short-program school. That is not disqualifying, but it does mean verifying accreditation, transferability of credits, and job-placement claims directly rather than trusting the category.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 145 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

At $10,308 a year on average after grant aid, cost is low here relative to most undergraduate institutions. Income makes less difference than usual: $10,209 at $0–30k, $15,845 at $110k+. About 62% get grants averaging $4,859, so plan on the possibility of paying closer to full price. Borrowing is widespread: 65% 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.
