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. First-year retention of 93% shows the cohort holds together through the hardest year. At 15:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. Judge these figures against other institutions of the same type — sector explains more of the variation in completion than any single campus factor. At 86 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 86 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Average net price after grant aid is $23,359 a year — mid-range for a four-year institution. Income makes less difference than usual: $23,986 at $0–30k, $23,274 at $110k+. Most students get help: 91% receive grants worth $7,635 on average. Borrowing is widespread: 76% take federal loans.
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.

|---|---|
| $0–30k | $23,986 |
| $30–48k | $23,724 |
| $48–75k | — |
