Six-year completion sits at 45%, meaning about three in five students who enroll leave without finishing. 58% first-year retention is low enough to be the defining risk of enrolling here. Retention and graduation track closely, so most of the attrition shows up in the first year rather than after it. At 16:1, class sizes land in the normal range for an undergraduate institution. This is a private nonprofit four-year college, so read every rate on this page against that peer group specifically.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 1,390 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Net price lands at $24,723 a year on average, neither cheap nor punishing. Net price swings hard on family income here, from $18,764 at the $0–30k band to $32,280 at $110k+. Grant aid reaches 73% of students at an average of $21,519. 50% 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.

|---|---|
| $0–30k | $18,764 |
| $30–48k | $18,394 |
| $48–75k | $22,118 |
