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. Just 51% of first-years come back — most of the completion gap opens in year one. The 10:1 student-faculty ratio is small enough that seminar-sized classes are the norm. This is a public short-program institution, so read every rate on this page against that peer group specifically. At 541 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 541 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

At $3,964 a year on average after grant aid, cost is low here relative to most undergraduate institutions. The gap between the $0–30k and $48–75k bands is narrow ($2,307 versus $2,307), meaning aid is not strongly need-weighted. 87% of students get grant aid averaging $1,957, so the published price is a poor guide to what most pay.

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.
