Admissions
Admission is not the constraint here: 95% of applicants are accepted. The applicant pool is small at 311, which makes year-over-year comparisons unreliable. 50% of admitted students actually enroll, which is a high yield by national standards.
Test score bands (middle 50% of submitters)
These bands describe the enrolled first-years who submitted a score, not the entering class. Where most students apply test-optional the submitters are a self-selected, higher-scoring group.
| Test | 25th–75th percentile | Submitted |

69% of students finish within six years, putting completion well above the national norm. First-year retention is 75% — the single largest point of attrition on this campus. The student-faculty ratio is 19:1 — typical, which in practice means large lectures early and smaller classes in the major. This is a for-profit two-year institution. That is not disqualifying, but it does mean verifying accreditation, transferability of credits, and job-placement claims directly rather than trusting the category. At 572 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 572 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Students pay an average of $26,787 annually once grants are applied. Income makes less difference than usual: $26,309 at $0–30k, $31,336 at $110k+. Grant aid reaches 75% of students at an average of $5,234. 73% of students borrow federally, so debt is the norm rather than the exception.
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 | $26,309 |
| $30–48k | $25,242 |
| $48–75k | $26,570 |
| $75–110k | $31,004 |
| $110k+ | $31,336 |
