Academics
No six-year graduation rate is reported for this institution, which is common for schools whose students are mostly part-time, transfer in, or enroll in short programs that the federal cohort measure does not track. Its absence is not itself a bad sign, but it does remove the clearest completion signal. 95% of full-time first-years return for a second year — a healthy figure. At 8:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. As a for-profit short-program school, 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.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 147 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Net price lands at $18,659 a year on average, neither cheap nor punishing. The gap between the $0–30k and $110k+ bands is narrow ($17,633 versus $21,880), meaning aid is not strongly need-weighted. 63% of students receive grant aid, averaging $4,344 — common but not automatic. 65% of students borrow federally, so debt is the norm rather than the exception.
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.
| Family income band | Average net price |
|---|---|
| $0–30k | $17,633 |
| $30–48k | $16,269 |
| $48–75k | $22,255 |
| $75–110k | $22,255 |
| $110k+ | $21,880 |
