Admissions
Grand River Technical School admits 88% of applicants — effectively open admission, so the application is a formality rather than a hurdle. Only 43 students applied, so treat these rates as directional — small pools swing sharply between cycles. Yield is high — 100% of admitted students go on to enroll, well above the typical rate.
Test score bands (middle 50% of submitters)

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 84% shows the cohort holds together through the hardest year. The 5:1 student-faculty ratio is small enough that seminar-sized classes are the norm. As a public short-program institution, the relevant comparison is other two-year schools rather than the national average across all institutions. This is a small school — 44 undergraduates — so cohorts are tight and the program list is necessarily short.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 39 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Students pay an average of $11,855 annually, well below typical undergraduate net price. The gap between the $0–30k and $48–75k bands is narrow ($11,011 versus $13,066), meaning aid is not strongly need-weighted. Most students get help: 87% receive grants worth $5,758 on average.
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.
| Family income band | Average net price |
|---|---|
| $0–30k | $11,011 |
| $30–48k | $10,180 |
| $48–75k | $13,066 |
