Student:faculty
16:1

Completion is middling: 50% finish inside six years. Retention is weak: only 40% of full-time first-years return, so roughly three in five leave after one year. At 16:1, class sizes land in the normal range for an undergraduate institution. This is a private nonprofit four-year college, so read every rate on this page against that peer group specifically. This is a small school — 702 undergraduates — so cohorts are tight and the program list is necessarily short.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 700 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Average net price after grant aid is $19,844 a year — mid-range for a four-year institution. Net price varies modestly by income — $19,463 at $0–30k against $25,787 at $110k+ — so the average is a fair guide for most families. 94% of students get grant aid averaging $6,522, so the published price is a poor guide to what most pay. Most students borrow — 81% take federal loans to cover the gap.

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.

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.
