Ten-year median earnings of $31,588 are on the low side, which raises the bar for what this degree needs to cost. The six-year graduation rate is 50%, meaning about one in two students who start do not finish. Debt at graduation runs to a median of $21,277, neither a bargain nor a burden.

Earnings: College Scorecard, median ten years after entry across students who received federal aid — completers and non-completers alike.

Student:faculty
9:1

50% graduate within six years — average, but that average still hides a large group who do not. 25% transfer out. IPEDS does not follow them, so whether they finished elsewhere is not recorded either way. At 9:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. This is a for-profit four-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. The undergraduate body is just 95, which shapes everything from class size to how often a required course is offered.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 95 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Students pay an average of $24,181 annually once grants are applied. Income makes less difference than usual: $27,628 at $0–30k, $20,734 at $30–48k. About 54% get grants averaging $6,032, so plan on the possibility of paying closer to full price. About 53% borrow federally, roughly the national pattern.

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.
