Academics
This institution reports no six-year graduation rate. The federal measure only follows first-time, full-time students, so schools built around part-time or transfer enrollment often fall outside it entirely. Retention is weak: only 56% of full-time first-years return, so roughly two in five leave after one year. A 26:1 ratio means students need to be deliberate about getting faculty time. 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. This is a small school — 511 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 467 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Average net price — what students actually pay after grant aid — is $28,238 a year, at the high end of undergraduate cost. The gap between the $0–30k and $110k+ bands is narrow ($29,464 versus $28,052), meaning aid is not strongly need-weighted. Only 38% of students receive grant aid, so most families are paying near the published price. 51% 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.
| Family income band | Average net price |
|---|---|
| $0–30k | $29,464 |
| $30–48k | $31,050 |
| $48–75k | $26,930 |
| $75–110k | $35,485 |
| $110k+ | $28,052 |
