Academics
Completion is the problem here: 25% graduate within six years. A 15:1 ratio points to small classes and accessible faculty. This is a public four-year university, so read every rate on this page against that peer group specifically. The undergraduate body is just 1,428, which shapes everything from class size to how often a required course is offered.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 1,263 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Students pay an average of $4,952 annually, well below typical undergraduate net price. Income makes less difference than usual: $3,374 at $0–30k, $9,870 at $110k+. 61% of students receive grant aid, averaging $6,597 — common but not automatic.
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 | $3,374 |
| $30–48k | $3,119 |
| $48–75k | $5,596 |
