Academics
The federal six-year graduation rate is not published here — typically because the entering cohort this measure follows is too small or too atypical to report. Treat completion as unknown rather than assuming either direction. 87% of full-time first-years return for a second year — a healthy figure. A 11:1 ratio points to small classes and accessible faculty. Being a for-profit short-program school is the single most useful context for these numbers — the sector's spread is wide enough that the school-level figures matter more than usual. At 155 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24
Average net price after grant aid is $20,902 a year — mid-range for a four-year institution. Income makes less difference than usual: $19,246 at $0–30k, $24,439 at $110k+. About 81% get grants averaging $4,923, so plan on the possibility of paying closer to full price. Federal borrowing reaches 47% of students.
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 | $19,246 |
| $30–48k | — |
| $48–75k | — |
