100% of students finish within six years, putting completion well above the national norm. Retention is weak: only 0% of full-time first-years return, so roughly nine in ten leave after one year. The 8:1 student-faculty ratio is small enough that seminar-sized classes are the norm. Judge these figures against other institutions of the same type — sector explains more of the variation in completion than any single campus factor. At 637 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.
