Academics
Six-year completion sits at 51%, meaning about one in two students who enroll leave without finishing. First-year retention is 78% — the single largest point of attrition on this campus. The distance between those two figures is the part worth noticing — students return for a second year at a much higher rate than they graduate, so attrition here is spread across the middle years rather than concentrated in the first. The 6:1 student-faculty ratio is small enough that seminar-sized classes are the norm. Judge these figures against other institutions of the same type — sector explains more of the variation in completion than any single campus factor.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 262 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Average net price is $4,450 a year after grant aid — low for a four-year institution, though your own figure depends on aid eligibility. Net price varies modestly by income — $4,310 at $0–30k against $6,915 at $75–110k — so the average is a fair guide for most families. Grant aid is widespread — 98% of students receive it, averaging $6,416.
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 | $4,310 |
| $30–48k | $4,450 |
| $48–75k | $5,189 |
