Admissions

Acceptance rate

Applicants

Yield rate
100.0%

Admission is not the constraint here: 100% of applicants are accepted. The applicant pool is small at 9, which makes year-over-year comparisons unreliable. Yield is high — 100% of admitted students go on to enroll, well above the typical rate.

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.

Academics

Full-time retention
60%
Transfer-out rate
23%
Student:faculty
19:1

A six-year graduation rate of 23% means finishing is closer to the exception than the rule. Retention of 60% means a meaningful slice of each entering class does not return. Retention runs well ahead of completion, which means students are not leaving immediately; they are leaving somewhere between the second year and the finish line. Transfer-out runs to 23% — common enough at this school that the completion rate is measuring a smaller group than the entering class. The student-faculty ratio is 19:1 — typical, which in practice means large lectures early and smaller classes in the major.

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.
