Academics
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 95%, and first-year attrition is where most degrees are lost. At 14:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. Being a for-profit short-program school is the single most useful context for these numbers — the sector's spread is wide enough that the school-level figures matter more than usual. This is a small school — 193 undergraduates — so cohorts are tight and the program list is necessarily short.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 193 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Net price averages $30,859 annually, so cost is the first thing to weigh here. Net price varies modestly by income — $29,874 at $0–30k against $34,061 at $110k+ — so the average is a fair guide for most families. 30% get grants, which means the net price above will not apply to most applicants. 37% of students take federal loans, a middling borrowing rate.
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 | $29,874 |
| $30–48k | $31,795 |
| $48–75k | $32,140 |
| $75–110k | $32,628 |
| $110k+ | $34,061 |
