Academics
A 100% six-year graduation rate is the strongest academic signal on this page. 82% of full-time first-years return for a second year — a healthy figure. At 15:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. Being a for-profit two-year institution 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. At 297 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 264 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Average net price — what students actually pay after grant aid — is $32,845 a year, at the high end of undergraduate cost. Net price varies modestly by income — $33,605 at $0–30k against $29,803 at $30–48k — so the average is a fair guide for most families. Grant aid reaches 56% of students at an average of $5,525. 52% 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.
