Student:faculty
16:1

Six-year completion sits at 59%, meaning about two in five students who enroll leave without finishing. Retention is weak: only 53% of full-time first-years return, so roughly one in two leave after one year. A 16:1 ratio is unremarkable; expect a mix of lecture halls and seminars. Judge these figures against other institutions of the same type — sector explains more of the variation in completion than any single campus factor. The undergraduate body is just 255, 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 255 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

At $3,523 a year on average after grant aid, cost is low here relative to most undergraduate institutions. Income makes less difference than usual: $3,375 at $0–30k, $5,004 at $48–75k. Most students get help: 100% receive grants worth $6,825 on average. 9% borrow federally — a low rate, though it covers federal loans only.

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.
