For-profit College in Cleveland, MS.
Academics
No six-year graduation rate is reported for this institution, which is common for schools whose students are mostly part-time, transfer in, or enroll in short programs that the federal cohort measure does not track. Its absence is not itself a bad sign, but it does remove the clearest completion signal. 25% first-year retention is low enough to be the defining risk of enrolling here. At 20:1, class sizes land in the normal range for an undergraduate institution. 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. At 35 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24
Students pay an average of $19,644 annually once grants are applied. 100% of students get grant aid averaging $3,535, so the published price is a poor guide to what most pay. 69% of students borrow federally, so debt is the norm rather than the exception.
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.
| Family income band | Average net price |
|---|---|
| $0–30k | $13,439 |
| $30–48k | — |
| $48–75k | — |
