Admissions
At 30%, the acceptance rate makes DLP Conemaugh Memorial Medical Center a school worth applying to with alternatives in hand. The applicant pool is small at 501, which makes year-over-year comparisons unreliable. Yield is low at 18%, so most admitted students do not end up enrolling. The score bands below cover the middle 50% of the enrolled students who submitted a score — not the whole class, and not a cutoff.

Completion is middling: 46% finish inside six years. Retention is weak: only 39% of full-time first-years return, so roughly three in five leave after one year. The 7:1 student-faculty ratio is small enough that seminar-sized classes are the norm. As a for-profit two-year institution, outcomes here deserve a harder look than the sector average suggests: for-profit institutions vary enormously, and the sector's aggregate numbers hide both strong and very weak performers. This is a small school — 150 undergraduates — so cohorts are tight and the program list is necessarily short.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 150 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Net price lands at $17,987 a year on average, neither cheap nor punishing. Net price swings hard on family income here, from $12,017 at the $0–30k band to $23,232 at $110k+. About 73% get grants averaging $6,093, so plan on the possibility of paying closer to full price. 47% 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 | $12,017 |
| $30–48k | $15,527 |
| $48–75k | $17,220 |
