Academics

Transfer-out rate
Student:faculty
25:1

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. 95% of full-time first-years return for a second year — a healthy figure. The 25:1 student-faculty ratio is high, so large classes and limited faculty contact should be the expectation. This is a for-profit short-program school. 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 — 141 undergraduates — so cohorts are tight and the program list is necessarily short.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 141 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Students pay an average of $15,891 annually once grants are applied. Income makes less difference than usual: $14,767 at $0–30k, $20,392 at $110k+. Grant aid reaches 50% of students at an average of $5,616. Federal borrowing reaches 52% of students.

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.
