Student:faculty
13:1

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. Retention of 75% means a meaningful slice of each entering class does not return. Part-time students fare worse, returning at 61% — relevant if you plan to work while enrolled. At 13:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. 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.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 294 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Net price lands at $22,245 a year on average, neither cheap nor punishing. The gap between the $0–30k and $75–110k bands is narrow ($21,249 versus $25,223), meaning aid is not strongly need-weighted. 61% of students receive grant aid, averaging $3,805 — common but not automatic. Most students borrow — 61% 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.
