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. 63% of full-time first-years come back for year two, so about two in five are gone before sophomore year. Part-time students actually return at a higher rate, 73%, which is unusual and suggests the school is built for them. The student-faculty ratio is 22:1 — typical, which in practice means large lectures early and smaller classes in the major.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 222 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Net price lands at $16,781 a year on average, neither cheap nor punishing. Income makes less difference than usual: $16,640 at $0–30k, $22,748 at $110k+. About 69% get grants averaging $5,528, so plan on the possibility of paying closer to full price. 64% 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.

| $0–30k | $16,640 |
| $30–48k | $17,282 |
| $48–75k | $18,498 |
