Median earnings ten years after entry come to $29,342, below what most undergraduate institutions return — the central fact to weigh against cost here. Completion is a strength: 74% of students finish within six years. Median debt at graduation is $12,000, a light load against those earnings.

Six-year completion runs to 74% — students who start here overwhelmingly finish here. Retention is weak: only 43% of full-time first-years return, so roughly three in five leave after one year. The 11:1 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. At 149 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 149 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Students pay an average of $15,827 annually once grants are applied. Net price varies modestly by income — $14,105 at $0–30k against $18,033 at $110k+ — so the average is a fair guide for most families. Most students get help: 99% receive grants worth $6,203 on average. Most students borrow — 90% take federal loans to cover the gap.

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 $14,105
$30–48k $12,705
$48–75k $16,905
