Six-year completion sits at 50%, meaning about one in two students who enroll leave without finishing. 67% of full-time first-years come back for year two, so about one in three are gone before sophomore year. Retention and completion are close, which places the gap between entering and finishing almost entirely in year one. The 50% transfer-out rate is high enough that a large share of this school's students are really passing through. At 8:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 194 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Net price lands at $22,503 a year on average, neither cheap nor punishing. Income makes less difference than usual: $21,199 at $0–30k, $20,433 at $110k+. 72% of students receive grant aid, averaging $6,577 — common but not automatic. 86% 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.
