Student:faculty
6:1

A six-year graduation rate of 0% means finishing is closer to the exception than the rule. The 50% transfer-out rate is high enough that a large share of this school's students are really passing through. A 6:1 ratio points to small classes and accessible faculty. Judge these figures against other institutions of the same type — sector explains more of the variation in completion than any single campus factor. This is a small school — 211 undergraduates — so cohorts are tight and the program list is necessarily short.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 211 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Students pay an average of $6,353 annually, well below typical undergraduate net price. Income makes less difference than usual: $6,353 at $0–30k, $7,823 at $30–48k. Most students get help: 90% receive grants worth $6,350 on average.

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.

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.
