Academics
Completion is the problem here: 29% graduate within six years. 92% of full-time first-years return for a second year — a healthy figure. Retention runs well ahead of completion, which means students are not leaving immediately; they are leaving somewhere between the second year and the finish line. At 10:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. As a for-profit two-year institution, outcomes here deserve a harder look than the sector average suggests: for-profit institutions vary enormously, and the sector's aggregate numbers hide both strong and very weak performers.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 166 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Net price lands at $24,811 a year on average, neither cheap nor punishing. 90% of students get grant aid averaging $5,725, so the published price is a poor guide to what most pay. Borrowing is widespread: 90% take federal loans.
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.
