Student:faculty

The federal six-year graduation rate is not published here — typically because the entering cohort this measure follows is too small or too atypical to report. Treat completion as unknown rather than assuming either direction. Retention is strong at 100%, and first-year attrition is where most degrees are lost. The 2:1 student-faculty ratio is small enough that seminar-sized classes are the norm. Being a for-profit short-program school is the single most useful context for these numbers — the sector's spread is wide enough that the school-level figures matter more than usual. At 36 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 36 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

At $9,879 a year on average after grant aid, cost is low here relative to most undergraduate institutions. Grant aid is limited — 8% of students receive any. Federal borrowing is uncommon here at 6% of students.

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.
