Academics
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. Just 18% of first-years come back — most of the completion gap opens in year one. Part-time students actually return at a higher rate, 78%, which is unusual and suggests the school is built for them. The 9:1 student-faculty ratio is small enough that seminar-sized classes are the norm. 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.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 104 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Net price averages $31,220 annually, so cost is the first thing to weigh here. Net price varies modestly by income — $32,088 at $0–30k against $35,978 at $110k+ — so the average is a fair guide for most families. Grant aid reaches 60% of students at an average of $4,304. 67% of students borrow federally, so debt is the norm rather than the exception.
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 | $32,088 |
| $30–48k | $33,455 |
| $48–75k | $31,294 |
| $75–110k | $35,978 |
| $110k+ | $35,978 |
